Isostatic Graphite Description
Isostatic Graphite refers to graphite materials produced by isostatic pressing. Isostatic graphite is pressed uniformly by liquid pressure during the molding process, and the obtained graphite material has excellent properties. It has large molding specifications, uniform blank structure, high density, high strength, and isotropy, and other advantages. So isostatic graphite is also called "isotropic" graphite.
