Isostatic graphite is formed by CIP (cold isostatic pressing) with uniform pressure from all directions, achieving isotropy below 5% with uniform structure and high purity. Standard molded graphite is unidirectionally pressed, with high anisotropy and significant directional property variation, unsuitable for high-precision and high-purity applications.
Yes. Isostatic graphite has purity above 99.99% and ash below 100 ppm, meeting the semiconductor industry's strict material purity requirements. It is widely used for crystal growth furnace heaters, crucibles and heat shields.
