Description
Pitch coke is a high purity carbon residue manufactured by the destructive distillation (coking) of coal tar pitch. Coal tar pitch is a by-product resulting from the thermal distillation of bituminous coal. Because it is condensed from the gas phase, coal tar pitch is inherently low in ash and other mineral impurities. Therefore, the resultant coke is low in impurities.
Coal tar pitch is a highly aromatic feedstock and results in the formation of a coke that is highly graphitisable. Pitch coke is also inherently low in sulfur and has relatively high thermal conductivity.
Application:
Calcined Pitch Coke is used widely in several industrial fields.
used as a raw material for the anode in aluminum smelting
and in artificial graphite making.
