The residue on the sieve No. 016, %, not more than = 40
Moisture content, %, not more than = 1,0
Graphite GL-2 (ГЛ-2)
Ash content, %, not more than = 18
The residue on the sieve No. 016, %, not more than = 40
Moisture content, %, not more than = 1,0
Graphite GL-3 (ГЛ-3)
Ash content, %, not more than = 25
