PROFILE |
 |
UCAR International is the US's largest maker of graphite electrodes. Accounting for more than three-fourths of the company's sales, graphite electrodes are used to generate heat in the production of steel and in electric arc furnaces. UCAR's carbon electrodes are used to make silicon metal, ferronickel, and thermal phosphorus. The company's carbon and graphite cathodes conduct electricity in aluminum smelting furnaces. Through its Graftech subsidiary, UCAR also makes flexible graphite that is used to make gaskets and other sealing products for the automotive and chemical industries. UCAR has postponed its planned spinoff of Graftech due to poor market conditions.
