Coal tar pitch

Pitch at Himadri is derived from the processing of high temperature coal tar using the latest technology under strict process and quality control. This results in pitch of:
Coal Tar Pitch
  • Low volatile content
  • High fixed carbon
  • Low ash content
  • No mesophase
  • Good wettability
  • Good thermal stability during storage.

Different grades of pitch

 Aluminium grade pitch
Aluminium grade pitch used for the manufacture of pre baked and soderberg anodes.

 Binder for Graphite industry
Used as a binding agent for the manufacture of high quality electrodes for electric arc furnace.

 Impregnating PitchImpregnating pitch
Himadri Zero Q.I impregnating pitch is ideally suitable for the impregnation of graphite electrodes, nipples and for production of UHP grade electrodes. It is also a important raw material for production of needle coke, carbon/carbon composites, advanced carbon products and carbon fibres.

 Special pitches
Used as raw material for refractories, carbon paste, paints, water proofing, etc. manufactured to customer requirement.

Pitch is marketed in both solid and liquid form. Solid pitch available in 50 kgs HDPE bags, 1 MT Jumbo Bags and in drums. Liquid pitch is supplied through dedicated fleet of company’s specialized made tankers.
