out up to the temperature o#' 2000' (o~~ Table 3)~ there ie further reduotion
t
of meohanical strength in all samples with the exoeption oP that mode from
foundry aoke~ It is true that this reduotion is not ae great ae in the
former series of experimenta~ The atxangest reduotion ie observed in the
case of anthraoite ha~ring a high aeh oontent (an ef~eot whioh is 1�I~ times
e ter than that in the graphitization at 1800�) ~ while the strength of
gr a
produats made from foundry ooke is even increased by a faotor of 1.1.
The meahanical strength of samples ~aade from petroleum ooke remains
unohan ed. There is further reduction of the speoifio eleotrioal resistanoe

and of the total ash oontent In graphitization up to the temperature of
2200� an interesting phenomenon is observed: the meahanical strength off'
roducts increases (of. Table as distinguished from all other samples
p
the one made from foundry coke shows a alight reduction of strength here
This m be due to the foot that in the case of foundry ooke the ohange of
curvature in the ourve expressing meahanioal strength begins somewhat earlier
In graphitization up to 2200� intensive recrystallization takes plaoe
in products prepared from foundry coke, anthracites, and mixtures� Further-
more, there is additional reduction of the vol~~me weight and of the ash
oontent, as can be seen from Table 4~
In the ra hitization temperature range 2200-2500� (af~ Tables 4 and
g P
there is a second abrupt drop of the mechanical strength occurring after the
i
first reduotion which takes place below 1800�~ The Volume weight and the

xt is evident from what has been said above that at~~800� the speaifio
electrical resistance drops sharply. F1~rth~r on, at 20C~0�, it increases
to some extent, but not on the samples made from petroleum coke Thie ie
probably due to the formation of crystalline metal carbides as distinguished
i
from amorphous metal carbides ~ The latter m~ form even at temperatures
lower than 1100�~ When the temperature is raisad to 2200�, the resistance
of the material begins to drop again and continues to drop anti]. 2500�

from Tables 2, 3, and 5y the highest specific weight is shown by samples
which have been graphitized at 2200� ~ The ash content drops to an insigni-
ficant extent up to 2000�? The reduction of the ash content becomes strongly

In order to determine the effeot of the quantity of oxide whioh had =r~-:';

The technological process of preparing the samples remained the same
as before. The temperature of graphitization was 2500�~ It turned out
that the physical properties of the product made from petroleum Doke changed

The ehat~pest reduction of mechanical strength (by a factor of l.8)
occurs upon addition of ferric oxide The reduction is somewhat lase }
pronounced in the case of magnesium oxide (by a Factor of 1~3), and is still
