FAQs of Flexible Graphite Sheet:
Q: How is flexible graphite sheet used in industrial sealing and gaskets?
A: Flexible graphite sheet serves as an excellent material for industrial sealing and gaskets due to its high compression ratio, chemical inertness, and ability to form tight, leak-proof seals. It is cut or shaped to fit various flanges and joints, maintaining performance even at high temperatures and pressures.
Q: What is the standard process for cutting and installing flexible graphite sheets?
A: Flexible graphite sheets can be cut using simple tools such as knives or shears, making them easy to shape to specific dimensions. During installation, the sheet is placed between mating surfaces and compressed to form a seal, usually without the need for binders or adhesives.
Q: When should I choose flexible graphite sheets over other sealing materials?
A: Flexible graphite sheets are preferred when applications demand a wide pH tolerance, high temperatures, excellent thermal conductivity, and resilience to aggressive chemicals. They are especially valuable when a smooth surface, minimal sulfur and chloride content, and superior sealing are required.
Q: Where can flexible graphite sheets be most effectively applied?
A: These sheets are widely used in refineries, chemical plants, power generation, and industrial equipment requiring reliable sealing, heat insulation, and resistance to chemicals. Their flexibility makes them suitable for both static and dynamic sealing environments.
Q: What are the key benefits of using a pure graphite sheet with low sulfur and chloride content?
A: High purity, with minimal sulfur (<1200 ppm) and chloride (50 ppm) content, ensures negligible corrosion and contaminant risk. This enhances the sheets longevity and maintains the integrity of sensitive industrial systems, especially in chemical and petrochemical sectors.
Q: How does the compression ratio of 3545% enhance the performance of flexible graphite sheets?
A: The optimal compression ratio provides a balance between adaptability and sealing strength. It allows the sheet to conform well to surface irregularities while maintaining integrity under pressure, preventing leakage and ensuring reliable long-term operation.
