Graphitized Petroleum Coke (GPC), also known as a low-nitrogen recarburizer, is a premium high-carbon additive specifically engineered for the metallurgical industry. By utilizing a high-temperature reduction process, this material provides exceptional carbonization capacity, allowing steel manufacturers to reach precise carbon content specifications rapidly, thereby optimizing the overall production cycle.
Designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern steel manufacturing, our GPC focuses on minimizing impurities. By significantly reducing nitrogen levels compared to traditional recarburizers, it effectively prevents nitrogen brittleness, enhancing the toughness, plasticity, and structural integrity of the final steel product while remaining environmentally sustainable.

High-temperature reduction ensures rapid carbon absorption, significantly shortening the steel production cycle.
Reduces nitrogen brittleness, greatly improving the toughness and plasticity of the finished steel.
Precise sizing ensures faster dissolution and highly uniform dispersion of additives in molten steel.
A green material production process that generates no harmful gases or wastewater residue.
Extremely low sulfur and ash content ensures the highest quality alloy steel output.
Ideal for high-temperature metallurgical processes ranging from 1500°C to 1800°C.
Added directly to molten steel via stirring or standing in insulation tanks for uniform mixing.
Typically added at a ratio of less than 1% of the molten steel mass based on specific requirements.
Optimized for high-temperature environments between 1500°C and 1800°C for complete breakdown.
Strict control of addition time and volume to ensure consistent steel grade and quality.
Efficient delivery and export capabilities via Tianjin and Qingdao ports, China.
Available in 1-ton Jumbo bags, bulk container shipments, or 25kg small bags per customer request.

GPC offers significantly lower nitrogen and sulfur content, which prevents nitrogen brittleness in steel and enhances the overall toughness and plasticity of the alloy.
For optimal breakdown and functionality, GPC should be added to molten steel at temperatures typically ranging between 1500°C and 1800°C.
Generally, the amount of GPC added is very small, usually not exceeding 1% of the total mass of the molten steel, depending on specific grade requirements.
Yes, we provide standard sizes such as 0-0.2mm, 0.2-1mm, and 1-5mm, but we can also customize the particle size according to your specific requests.
Absolutely. The production process of our GPC is designed to be green, producing no harmful gases or wastewater residues, thus reducing the environmental burden.
We ship via major Chinese ports including Tianjin and Qingdao. Packaging options include 1-ton Jumbo bags, bulk containers, or 25kg small bags.
