The applications of impregnated carbon graphite in life mainly include the following aspects:
Refrigerated truck refrigeration system: Refrigerated trucks are used to transport perishable goods, and the refrigeration system in their compressors contains carbon graphite seals. Carbon graphite is chemically inert and can operate in low-viscosity refrigerants to prevent toxic refrigerant gases from leaking into the environment.
Automobile turbochargers: Turbochargers are used to improve the efficiency of automobile engines, and carbon graphite seals can withstand high temperatures and exhaust gases to prevent CO2 emissions from entering the atmosphere.
Commercial aircraft: Commercial aircraft use carbon graphite materials because of their light weight, environmental durability, self-lubrication, oxidation resistance and good thermal conductivity. Carbon graphite is used in aircraft bleed valves, jet fuel pumps and instruments, as well as aircraft shaft seals, improving fuel efficiency.
Spacecraft rocket booster pumps: Spacecraft use carbon graphite materials to manufacture booster pumps, especially when handling cryogenic fuels such as liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen, the high temperature tolerance and sealing properties of carbon graphite make it an ideal choice.
