The invention provides a method for preparing a high-strength high-density isotropic
graphite material. According to the method,
pitch mesocarbon micro bead (MCMB)
powder of which the D50 is larger than 20 micrometers, and the volatile content is less than 7 percent is taken as a
raw material, and the high-strength high-density isotropic
graphite material is prepared by adopting the self-
sintering process that the
raw material powder is added into an
organic solvent of
pitch, the
solvent is removed, the
powder is pressed, a green
briquette is formed through isostatic compaction,
roasting and
carbonization are performed, and graphitization is performed. According to the method, an
organic solvent method is utilized to disperse bitumastic
cement, so as to realize the modification on MCMB powder with
large size and low volatile matter, the original shapes and sizes of the MCMB particles are basically kept after modification, good self sinterability is realized, and the finally obtained
graphite is fine and uniform in structure, high in density and excellent in
mechanical property. The
pitch of the dispersed and modified MCMB is distributed uniformly, the inner stress of the green
briquette in the isostatic compaction step is more uniformly distributed, and balanced expansion and shrinkage in the working procedures of
roasting and graphitization are realized, and therefore, a product is not liable to crack, and the yield reaches not less than 90 percent.
