  • Patent number: 9253827
    Abstract: A graphite electrode exhibits oxidation resistance by modifying the outer radial surface characteristics. The outer radial surface may be modified by providing a textured portion which improves water flow while minimizing water absorbtion. Alternately, a layer of flexible graphite or plurality of particles of exfoliated graphite may be disposed on the outer radial surface of the electrode body.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 21, 2014
    Date of Patent: February 2, 2016
    Assignee: Graftech International Holdings, Inc.
