Ua vaeluaina le Graphite i le pitch-based grafite lagonaina, polyacrylonitrile-based (PAN-based) graphite lagonaina, ma le viscose-based grafite na lagonaina ona o le eseese filifiliga o uluaʻi felts. O le autu mafuaʻaga o le faʻaaogaina o le faʻasaoina o le vevela ma mea faʻavevela vevela mo monocrystalline silicon smelting ogaumu. I le vailaʻau alamanuia, e mafai ona faʻaaogaina o se faamama mea mo maualuga-mama aʻafia vailaʻau reagents.
O le karaponi na lagonaina le kalafi na lagonaina i le maeʻa ai ona togafitia i le maualuga vevela o le sili atu 2000 ℃ i lalo lagona gaogao poʻo inert ea. O le kaponi o loʻo iai e maualuga atu nai lo le carbon lagona, e oʻo atu i le 99%. I le faaiuga o le 1960s, lagona faʻasolosolo ua maeʻa avanoa i le lalolagi. Ua vaeluaina le kalafi i totonu o le pitch-based, polyacrylonitrile-based graphite lagonaina ma le viscose-based graphite na lagonaina ona o le eseʻese filifiliga o le uluaʻi lagona.
