Coal tar pitch is a complex mixture of the residue from the distillation of high temperature coal tar with an approximate softening point of 90 to 180-degree C. Coal tar pitch is a critical raw material used in the production of aluminum and for the production of steel in electric arc furnaces. The combination of its binding properties with its high carbon content makes pitch an ideal complement to calcined petroleum coke for the production of carbon anode paste.
