filler coke

The main constituent of a carbon artifact, introduced as solid component (predominantly in the form of particulate carbon ) into the 'carbon mix' from which polygranular carbon and graphite materials are obtained by heat treatment.
Note:
Filler coke is not necessarily the only, but it is commonly the most important filler material used in a 'carbon mix' which consists of filler and binder.
