Graphite products maintain the original chemical properties of flake graphite, namely acid resistance, corrosion resistance and physical properties, namely high temperature resistance 3000C and low temperature resistance 204C. Its compressive strength is greater than 800kg/cm2, and it is anti-oxidation. It loses weight in air at 450°C by 1 % , the rebound rate is 15-50% (density 1.1-1.5). It also has strong self-lubricating properties. Therefore, graphite products have been widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, petrochemical industry, high energy physics, aerospace, electronics and so on.

Using the characteristics of graphite, people have deftly made different types of products according to the needs of engineering: such as high-purity graphite products, flexible graphite products, composite graphite products and so on. In order to improve the performance, graphite and fiber (including synthetic fiber), graphite wire, metal mesh, and metal processing plate are combined to make composite graphite products, which greatly increases its strength and elasticity.

Composite graphite products are mainly cold-pressed or heat-bonded with resins, synthetic rubber, plastics (PTFE, ethylene, propylene, etc.), as well as liquid graphite products (ie, graphite milk, etc.) and semi-liquid graphite products (ie, graphite grease, etc.). Industrially, graphite ore is divided into two categories: crystalline (flaky) graphite ore and stable crystal (earth) graphite ore. Crystalline graphite ore can be divided into two types: scaly and dense. Graphite ores in China are mainly of the scale-like crystal type, which is an implicit quality type, and the dense-like crystalline graphite is only found in individual deposits such as Tokebula in Xinjiang, and has little industrial value.

With the rapid development of world industry, graphite has been regarded as one of the important industrial mineral raw materials at home and abroad, especially in recent years with the development of science and technology, graphite products have played an important role in all walks of life. Graphite products play an important role in sealing, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, conductivity, heat preservation, compression resistance, wear resistance, and oxidation resistance in a wide range of fields, and have attracted the attention of experts at home and abroad. Of course, graphite products are also quietly entering modern office supplies. For example, an archival supplies factory in Jiangxi uses graphite expansion to process insect-resistant discs with a certain ability to absorb drugs and maintain their drug properties for one year.
