A type of paint made from boiled linseed oil, powdered graphite, and a drier. Graphite paint is used to inhibit corrosion on metal surfaces.


How To Make Conductive Graphite Paint
Graphite powder can be mixed with a binder such as acrylic glaze to make a conductive paint that can be used in solar and battery projects. A commercial version of this material is known as wire glue used for no-solder electrical connections. This is a nice materials science problem because there are many variables that can be changed which affect the conductivity and ease of use of the final product. Coming up with a standard, repeatable method of measuring resistance is also required.
