Graphite electrode is a kind of high temperature resistant graphite conductive material produced by a series of technological processes including petroleum coke, needle coke as aggregate, coal asphalt as binder, kneading, molding, roasting, impregnation, graphitization and mechanical processing. Graphite electrode is an important high-temperature conductive material for steelmaking in electric furnace. Through the graphite electrode, electric energy is input to the electric furnace, and the high temperature generated by the arc between the electric extreme part and the charge is used as the heat source to melt the charge for steelmaking. Graphite electrodes are also used as conductive materials in other ore furnaces for smelting materials such as yellow phosphorus, industrial silicon and abrasive. Graphite electrode has been widely used in other industries for its excellent and special physical and chemical properties.

The electric arc furnace (eaf) is a kind of steelmaking method which is produced by the electric arc between the electrode and the charge, which turns the electric energy into heat energy in arc light, and fuses the metal and slag with the direct action of the radiation and the electric arc.
