Abstract

Carbon has been used as a face material in mechanical seals for well over fifty years. The first grades of carbon used were developed from carbon electrical brush materials, but the continuous increase in the severity of mechanical seal operating conditions has necessitated ever improving grades of carbon. This paper details some of the means available to the carbon technologist to achieve these improvements and gives examples of some special applications.
