The oxidation characteristics of the commercially available graphites, Speer Carbon Company Grades 580 and 7100 and Great Lakes Carbon Corporation H3LM and H1LM, were investigated for a series of temperatures between 1000 F and 155 F. The technique used permitted the continuous and automatic rec rding of oxidation rate. Oxidation-rate constants were calculated for each material at 1000 F, 1250 F, 1350 F, 1450 F, and 1550 . Activation energies r each material were also calculated. The data were consistent with other reported data for commercial, natural, and p re artificial graphite . (Author)
