Abstract
The process of graphitization of anthracite as a carbon component of self-baking electrodes is considered. Experimental
studies of the physical properties of thermoanthracite by thermogravimetry and IR spectroscopy in the temperature
range 400…1400 °C were performed. Regression models of the relationship between the structure of thermoanthracite,
strength, thermal conductivity and resistivity and the temperature regime of anthracite calcination were created. Ref. 9,
Tabl. 4, Fig. 7.
Keywords: thermoanthracite; self-baking electrodes; thermophysical characteristics; dynamic thermogravimetry; IR
spectroscopy; crystallites; density; electrical conductivity; phase composition
