[0002] Graphitization refers to heating non-graphite carbon to above 2000°C in a protective medium in a high-temperature electric furnace or in an airtight state. Due to physical changes, the hexagonal carbon atom plane mesh layer stacking structure is improved and developed, and it is transformed into graphite carbon with a three-dimensional regular and orderly structure of graphite. Graphitization improves the volume density, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and mechanical processing performance of the product. Graphitization is a key process in the production of artificial graphite negative electrodes.
