Overheating phone and poor electric vehicle range? Graphite sheet holds a "double magic".

In summer, using your phone instantly turns it into a "hand warmer," and you worry about your electric vehicle's range dropping too quickly on long trips—These problems actually have solutions in place thanks to graphite materials. But what you might not know is that graphite also has "different roles": one for cooling electronic devices, and another for supporting battery life. They may seem similar, but their uses are quite different!

01 Different Origins: The Two Types of Graphite Have Different Origins and Bases.

·  Artificial Graphite Film (formerly PI-based Graphite): Made from special thin films, it's like a "custom-made" product, with performance adjustable to meet specific needs. Its internal structure is neat and regular.

· Electrode Graphite: Processed from raw materials like petroleum coke, it's more like a "basic" product. Its performance depends primarily on the quality of the raw materials themselves.

02 Different techniques: one is meticulous and refined, the other is steady and methodical.

· Artificial graphite film: The production process is short but the requirements are high. Through high-temperature treatment, the carbon atoms are arranged neatly. The temperature control is extremely precise, and finally, a thin film-like structure is formed.

· Electrode graphite: It needs to go through multiple processes such as crushing, mixing, pressing, and repeated baking. This process is time-consuming and involves many steps, and finally it is made into a hard block-like form.

03 Different skills, each with its own unique expertise

· Artificial Graphite Film: It is mainly characterized by "fast heat conduction and flexibility". The heat can quickly dissipate without accumulation. It can also be attached to flexible devices such as foldable screens and smart wristbands. It is a "cooling device" for mobile phones and laptops.

· Electrode graphite: Its main advantages are "stable conductivity and long-lasting use". It can withstand the chemical environment inside the battery and is unlikely to be damaged even after repeated charging and discharging. It is the "core support" of electric vehicle batteries.

04 Clear division of labor, each performing their own duties without competing for tasks

·Artificial graphite film: Specifically designed to protect electronic devices, such as mobile phone chips, notebook graphics cards, and wearable devices, with a focus on addressing the "overheating" issue.

· Electrode Graphite: Rooted in the energy and industrial sectors, such as in the batteries of electric vehicles and the electrodes for electrolyzing metals, it ensures stable power output and the long-term operation of equipment.

Dasen Technology focuses on artificial graphite films. It fully exploits and enhances the advantages of "fast heat conduction and strong adaptability", and can customize appropriate cooling solutions for both ordinary mobile phones and high-end electronic devices.

In fact, these two types of graphite are like "specialists" in different fields - one specializing in heat dissipation, and the other in conductivity and energy conservation. They quietly solve the minor problems in our lives. In the future, they will become even more practical. For instance, artificial graphite films will be more cost-effective, and electrode graphite will enable electric vehicles to travel further.
