Influence of kneading ratio on the binding interaction of coke aggregates on manufacturing a carbon block

Coke aggregates and carbon artifacts were produced to investigate the interactions of coke
and pitch during the kneading process. In addition, the kneading ratio of the coke and binder
pitch for the coke aggregates was controlled to identify the formation of voids and pores
during carbonization at 900°C. Experiments and thermogravimetric analysis revealed that
carbon yields were improved over the theoretical yield calculated by the weight loss of the
coke and binder pitch; the improvement was due to the binding interactions between the
coke particles and binder pitch by the kneading process. The true, apparent, and bulk densities
fluctuated according to the kneading ratio. This study confirmed that an excessive or
insufficient kneading ratio decreases the density with degradation of the packing characteristics.
The porosity analysis indicated that formation of voids and pores by the binder pitch
increased the porosity after carbonization. Image analysis confirmed that the kneading ratio
affected the formation of the coke domains and the voids and pores, which revealed the relations
among the carbon yields, density, and porosity.
