Pitch products are produced by Rain Carbon Inc. from coal tar pitch (CTP), a derivative of coal tar distillation, as well as from specialty petroleum feedstocks. CTP is mainly used as a binder for the production of carbon anodes essential for aluminum smelting.
Features and Benefits
Pitch products are produced by Rain Carbon Inc. from coal tar pitch (CTP), a derivative of coal tar distillation, as well as from specialty petroleum feedstocks. CTP is mainly used as a binder for the production of carbon anodes essential for aluminum smelting.
• CTPs are manufactured with many different softening points, used as binders for carbon anodes, graphite electrodes, specialty graphite, and Søderberg electrodes, as well as for refractory materials. • Petroleum-based pitches for road surface sealing, and for the production of clay pigeons and activated carbon are also manufactured.
