 PROFILE
Graphite isn't just for pencils. Graftech makes flexible graphite products for automotive and industrial sealing and gasket applications. Product brand names include GRAFOIL, GRAFGuard, and GRAFShield. Graftech supplies its products to Ballard Power Systems for use in that company's fuel cells. Other uses for Graftech products include thermal management for electronics, fire protection for building materials, energy management for batteries, and heat management for industrial furnaces. Parent UCAR International postponed a spin-off of Graftech and folded the unit into its Advanced Energy Technology Division. Graftech has the most patents in the world for flexible graphite applications for fuel cells.
