PURPOSE:To enable the title members to be joined firmly by putting a prepreg made of carbon fibers and a carbonizable substance in the joint area between two carbon fiber/carbon composite members, pressing and heating it to join the members together, and baking in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. CONSTITUTION:A prepreg made of carbon fibers and a carbonizable substance (e.g., B-stage phenolic resin) is put in a joint area between a pair of members comprising either a carbon fiber/carbon composite or a material that will form a carbon fiber/carbon composite when baked, which is heated while the prepreg is pressed by the pair of members to join the members together and which is then baked in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. This technique enables carbon fiber/carbon composite members to be joined together very firmly to give a heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, conductive joint; therefore, it can be utilized in assembling a heat generating device of a complicated shape and a heat generating device used in a corrosive atmosphere, wherein a carbon fiber/carbon composite is employed as heating element. |
