difference between graphite and grafoil

difference between graphite and grafoil

(OP)
Hi,

could you tell me if there is any difference between Graphite and grafoil. I think that one is a registred trade mark and the other is the generic material name but ... I need to be sure.

thank you for your response.

RE: difference between graphite and grafoil

Graphite is a material that comes in an incredible range of forms and properties. Grafoil is a proprietary, flexible form of graphite for use in applications that benefit from the innate properties of graphite and that flexibility. I have used it in a stack of components in a high temperature, vacuum environment press application to improve pressure uniformity, for example.
