It is unique in its properties to act as an improved Binder having excellent Compatibility with carbonaceous aggregrates of different origin & nature to provide superior grades of electrodes either in situ or in Soderberg type. This product helps to impart technical properties and produce top class anode quality. The Binder is used besides the Aluminium industries also in Refractory, Foundry Chemicals and selected pigment manufacture. - Graphite Grade Binder Pitch
Improved chemical compatibility between carbonaceous aggregate (CPC) and the pitch - it is possible to manufacture long durable and best performing graphite electrodes. Manufactured electrodes can be used in high capacity electric arc furnaces in hassel free operation. - Impregnated Coal Tar Pitch
Carbon and graphite electrodes are finally impregnated with special types of pitch to increase strength and density. Impregnation pitch or Zero QI pitch is used for smooth penetration in micro pores of electrodes for decreasing porosity and to increase strength & electrical conductance, resulting in more durable and best performing graphite electrodes. This zero QI Pitch also has applications in Defense. - Mesophase Pitch
Mesophase pitch is being synthesised from pure coal tar. Mesophase pitch is used to make high technology products, such as carbon fibres, binders for lithium ion batteries etc. - Refractory Pitch Grade
This pitch is used in manufacture of manufacturing carbon bricks mixture, tap hole mass, ramming mass, sealing fluids. It helps to impart technical properties and is of top quality. - Ultramarine Blue
This type of pitch is used as reducing agent as well as a heat source in the manufacture of ultramarine blue. - Pitch for Industrial Crucible and Blocks
This product is used in manufacturing of industrial silicon carbide blocks, crucible and as a binder for casted material. - Pitch Creosote Mixture Dehydrated Coal Tar
The main ingredients are superior grade binder pitch processed from coal tar generated in high temperature carbonisation of bituminous coal. The selected quality of binder pitch is then cut back by mixing with specific type and ratio of coal tar oil/solvents to achieve the specific properties required for downstream application as defined below. It is not merely half cooked coal tar that is generally marketed as ordinary dehydrated coal tar.

POWER
Himadri generates clean and green power, which is marketed to the state electricity grid and consumed in-house. Himadri uses low caloric value waste gas coming out from Carbon Black Process which is utilized in the Boilers. Boilers are especially designed to generate High Pressure & High Temperature steam. This High Pressure & High temperature steam in turn drives the Turbo- Generators to generate Power. We are using as much process energy possible which would otherwise have gone waste to fulfill our commitment of energy conservation & environment protection.
