Flexible graphite foil is a sealing material suitable for the environment, including high temperature, high-pressure transfer of fluids, steam, chemicals, and corrosives. It is available in the form of rolls, sheets, rings, and discs. It is made out of high purity, high crystalline natural graphite flakes, which are processed into continuous foil by thermal treatment and particular acid to produce expanded graphite crystals, later formed into flexible foil through an extensive calendaring process. Flexible graphite foil is an excellent gasket material for sealing high-temperature valves, shafts, and flanges. In the fuel cell industry, flexible graphite foil is used to make bipolar graphite plates.
Market Dynamics
Expanding metal, automotive, petroleum, chemical, paper, and nuclear industries fuel the demand for flexible graphite foil. These industries deal with high temperatures, many leakage points, and various hot or corrosive fluids. Flexible graphite foil acts as a thermal barrier at high temperatures, delivers outstanding reflectivity, and seals vessels perfectly. Moreover, flexible graphite foil's unique properties, such as excellent conductivity, flexibility, soft and easy processing in contrast to the other raw material, also contribute to the growth. Industrial processes are becoming more complex, notably higher temperatures, reductions in equipment downtimes, and increased product quality demand optimum material solutions. This is driving innovation in the market. Key players are focused on bringing high-performance graphite foil meeting harsh working environments. However, the presence of other alternatives is hindering the growth of the global flexible graphite foil market.
