Carbon/carbon composites and electrical apparatus containing the same.

摘要

This invention relates to a carbon-carbon composite prepared by partially densifying a carbon fiber preform with a carbon matrix to form a densified carbon composite, and infiltrating the densified carbon composite with at least one material capable of increasing the coefficient of thermal expansion of the carbon composite. The invention also relates to apparatus containing the carbon-carbon composites. These carbon-carbon composites have beneficial coefficients of thermal expansion and good thermal conductivity.
