The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing carbon electrode rods having a diameter of 8 mm or less and having high density and high strength. Average particle size
Plain raw petroleum coke of 15 to 250 μm and 8 to 15% volatile content, or this with an average particle size of 15 to 250 μm
After adding a binder to a mixture containing burnt coke, artificial graphite, etc. and heating and kneading it, it is extruded and baked in a conventional manner, and if necessary,
It is characterized by graphitization. The carbon electrode rod obtained by the present invention can be used for various purposes such as gouging, blasting, movies, lighting, and medical use. Conventionally, artificial graphite, coke, and their mixtures with carbon black have been mainly used as carbon material aggregates. However, carbon materials mainly composed of artificial graphite and coke have limitations in bonding between the aggregate and the binder, and sufficient strength cannot be obtained. Furthermore, in order to obtain high density, the particle size must be mixed in consideration of closest packing, which unnecessarily complicates the manufacturing process. Furthermore, unless the binder part is fired to a temperature of 2500°C or higher, it has the disadvantage of poor machinability since it is made of carbon rather than graphite. On the other hand, since carbon electrode rods are consumable items, in order to compensate for their drawbacks, connected carbon electrode rods are often used in which both ends of the carbon electrode rod are processed and connected. However, conventional products were limited to products with a diameter of 8 mm or more due to limitations such as not having sufficient strength and poor workability. Therefore, as a result of many years of research and development on a method for manufacturing a high-density and high-strength carbon electrode rod in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have discovered that carbonization accompanied by large shrinkage during firing of raw petroleum coke, Focusing on the compatibility with coke and caking agent and the sintering stability of burnt coke, we focused on raw petroleum coke powder with an average particle size of 15 to 250 μm, or added to this raw petroleum coke powder with an average particle size of 15 to 250 μm.
The aggregate is a mixture of burnt coke, artificial graphite, etc., and these are combined with coal tar pitch, petroleum pitch, phenol resin, furan resin,
When manufactured according to the usual manufacturing process for carbon electrode rods, which involves adding a synthetic resin binder such as polyethylene resin, kneading, extrusion molding, firing, and graphitizing if necessary, the result is a high-strength and high-density carbon electrode rod. We have discovered a method to easily obtain electrode rods. That is, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an electrode rod that does not require expensive raw materials such as artificial graphite as in the conventional method, has high density and high strength, and is economically advantageous. To be more specific, conventional carbon materials include artificial graphite,
= It is manufactured by kneading burnt coke and a caking agent, but by utilizing the thermal polycondensation reaction of the caking agent during the calcination process, the strength and density have been improved. There is a limit to the amount of shrinkage due to the agent alone, and if a binder exceeding the limit is added to increase the amount of shrinkage, the range of firing conditions will be extremely narrow and firing cracks will occur. Moreover, it is easily considered that the bond between the aggregate and the binder is still insufficient during the carbonization process. The present invention is an improvement on the above conventional method. In other words, raw petroleum coke contains about 7 to 15% volatile matter. In other words, it contains components that are compatible with the binder, and the bond between the raw petroleum coke as an aggregate and the binder becomes extremely strong during the carbonization process, resulting in high strength. From the above, it is understood that coke has caking properties, and considering that high density is obtained by the aggregate and caking agent contracting together during firing,
Raw petroleum coke alone with an average particle size of 15 to 250 μm or a mixture of conventionally used calcined coke and artificial graphite with an average particle size of 15 to 250 μm is used as aggregate, and a binder is added. Heat and knead.
This is a carbon electrode manufacturing method characterized by extrusion molding, firing, and graphitization if necessary. Incidentally, the term "burnt coke" used in the present invention refers to petroleum coke, pitch coke, etc., and in addition to these, carbon black and the like can also be used in combination. Examples of the present invention will be described below. Example 1 Raw petroleum coke with an average particle size of 15 μm and a volatile content of 11%
37 parts of coal tar pitch was added to 100 parts, and the mixture was heated and kneaded in a kneader at 120°C for 2 hours. This kneaded material was extruded, fired, and graphitized by a conventional method to obtain an electrode rod with a diameter of 13 mm. The physical property values thus obtained are as shown in the table below. Example 2 Raw petroleum coke with an average particle size of 80 μm and a volatile content of 10%
