My understanding is that so far there is no evidence that they are isotropic or spherical. I don't know. But that is what Threshold believes and he has been very close to this story. Claude, have you read the article titled "Improvement of Nuclear Grade Graphite based on isotropic and Highly Crystalline Natural Graphite" HTR2008-58206 No. I haven't see the need to purchase the document yet. They used the Natural Graphite to replace Synthetic used as reactor Graphite. Also at the end of the paper they mention "The reactor grade graphite can also be used in non- nuclear applications such as chlorine alkali electrolysis or for thermal electrodes" This probably remains to be tested. In current applications, reactor graphite is made from isotropic sources while thermal electrodes are made from anisotropic sources. So I guess we will have to wait and see if a manufacturer of electric arc furnaces signs a CA with ZEN and fully test this possibility.
