A reinforced carbon article which comprises a carbon fiber shape bonded by a carbon binder and having incorporated within said article a friction modifier, e.g., the in situ reaction product of carbon and a boron containing additive which comprises a material selected from the group consisting of boron, boron nitride, boron silicide and refractory metal borides; and a process of making such an article which comprises forming a carbon fiber shape, dispersing a boron containing additive within at least a portion of said carbon fiber shape, impregnating the carbon fiber shape with a carbonizable binder, and heating the shape to carbonize the binder and to form in situ the reaction product of carbon and the boron containing additive.
