Why is graphite for photovoltaic applications the Industry Standard?

Superior thermal management: While manufacturing solar cells, having precise control overheat as well as even temperature distribution is important. Graphite helps maintain stability during the volatile process of PV construction.

Contamination prevention: To ensure as little pollution as possible in the fabrication of solar cells, graphite is ideal when used for crucibles, boats and insulators in cleanroom environments due to its high purity and chemical resistance.

Stable production processes: Stable and repeatable performance results in less downtime and improved output consistency in photovoltaic production lines. This is achievable because of advanced machining, strict QC practices, and graphite components.

Durability and longevity: Cost-effective operations in the manufacturing of solar cells can be achieved due to the long-term nature graphite provides when its extreme temperatures are withstood, providing less equipment wear and tear, and extended equipment life.
