What are the reasons for the loss of graphite electrodes in vacuum furnaces?

What are the reasons for the loss of graphite electrodes in vacuum furnaces?

Vacuum furnaces process hard zinc and recover zinc metal. The normal working conditions of the vacuum distillation furnace are the vacuum degree of 500~2000Pa and the temperature of 950~1050℃. Under this condition, the vapor pressure of the graphite electrode is very low, and its volatilization loss is negligible, so its service life depends on its … Continue reading “What are the reasons for the loss of graphite electrodes in vacuum furnaces?”
