Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) for Scientific Research and Instrument Manufacturing

Pyrolytic graphite is a new type of carbon material. It is a pyrolytic carbon with high crystalline orientation that is deposited by chemical vapor deposition of high purity hydrocarbon gas on graphite matrix at 1800℃ ~ 2000℃ under a certain furnace pressure. It has high density (2.20g/cm³), high purity (impurity content (0.0002%) and anisotropy of thermal, electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties. It can still maintain a vacuum of 10mmHg at about 1800℃.

What's PG and HOPG?

PG--Pyrolytic graphite is a new type of carbon material. It is a pyrolytic carbon with a high crystal orientation that is deposited by chemical vapor deposition on a graphite matrix at 1800ºC~2000ºC with high-purity hydrocarbon gas under a certain furnace pressure. It has high density (2.20g/cm), high purity (impurity content (0.0002%)) and anisotropy of thermal, electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties. It can still maintain a vacuum degree of 10mmHg at around 1800ºC.

Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) is a "crystalline" graphite with good crystal structure, strong preferred orientation and high degree of graphitization. Its preparation principle is to select high-quality fine cone structure pyrolytic graphite (PG) as the basic raw material, and then use high temperature and high pressure equipment to process it through multiple special processes. Under this high temperature and high pressure state, the grain structure of PG is quickly transformed, the arrangement of carbon atom layers becomes more orderly, and the original "disordered layer stacking" structure is transformed into an arrangement form with strong preferred orientation of grains, forming a "quasi-crystal" close to the ideal graphite structure. Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite has good carbon atom structure.17273657927b7cd024a5e6df14c3506

Pyrolytic graphite has extremely strong anti-magnetic properties, which allows it to be suspended in a magnetic field due to repulsion. Specifically, pyrolytic graphite will generate an induced magnetic moment in the magnetic field that is opposite to the external magnetic field, thereby generating a weak repulsive force that causes it to suspend. In addition, by constructing a specific magnetic field configuration, stable suspension of pyrolytic graphite can be achieved.

Products Features
