Uses of Carbon and Graphite
The range of graphite specialties is extremely diverse using graphites which are isostatically pressed, extruded, die-moulded and vibration-moulded graphite, carbon and graphite felt to carbon fibre-reinforced carbon. Olmec Advanced Materials construct and process complex components from these materials. Finishing processes, such as coatings, impregnation and cleaning round off the product portfolio.
