Graphitized carbon
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-005010
A carbon material that has undergone a high-temperature heat treatment, typically above 2000 °C, to develop a highly ordered graphitic structure. This process improves its electrical conductivity, thermal stability, and mechanical properties. Graphitized carbon is used in electrodes, brushes, and as a component in advanced composites.
