There are three main types of graphite: natural, synthetic, and expandable! π±
Natural graphite is found in
nature and comes in three forms: flake, lump, and amorphous. Flake graphite is shaped like thin sheets and is highly valuable. Synthetic graphite is made in factories and can be shaped easily to fit different needs. π
οΈ Lastly, expandable graphite can grow in size when heated, making it great for fireproof materials! π₯
Each type has special qualities that make it suitable for different jobs. So, graphite isnβt just one thingβit's many!
