What is C/C Composite?

C/C composite is a material made from carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix. Compared to other materials such as ceramics, metal, and plastic, it is light and strong and can withstand temperatures over 2000℃ without any loss in performance.

C/C Composite
Metal	Graphite	Ceramic	Plastic

　

	C/C Composite
Compared to metal:	High heat resistance over 2000℃ (3500F) Low thermal expansion Light weight (1/5 of metal) Excellent resistance to corrosion and radiation
Compared to graphite:	High strength and rigidity High resistance to fracture
Compared to ceramic:	High resitance against fracture Does not bond Can be made into complex shape
Compared to plastic:	Heat resistance over 2000℃ (3500F) Excellent resistance against corrosion and radiation
