KNL Expandable graphite, what do we know about it, page-20

melting point is very very important ,
why is it important ? the hexagonal structure one layer on top of the other is more perfect the higher the temps. are or
where at the time of it"s creation. ( no holes in the chicken wire is the best , any hole would slow the flow of electrons and would create a bottleneck and over heating and it would be less strong, all very logic.


canadian graphite melts at 1000 to 1100c.
china reaches 1100 to 1200c.
KNL 1300c. , ( it could be 1200 to 1300 or 1300 to 1400 )

so how can we calculate or ascertain how high was the temp. in other competing companies orebody ?
it is very simple really, we look at the material that was not burned to ash , we research that material and find out the burning temp.of that material . Now we could say it reached temp. X and we know a lot more about the graphite before the company even made an ANN . about it .
