A hybrid carbon/carbon composite and a method of manufacturing a hybrid carbon/carbon composite, wherein a raw material containing carbon fibers with two or more different lengths and meso-phase carbon as a binder are raw materials. The raw materials are kneaded in the presence of adhesives, dried and defibrated, then molded under heat and pressure by hot press, and thereafter subjected to heat treatment.

Method of making carbon/carbon composite

A preformed yarn useful in forming fiber-reinforced carbon composite articles is disclosed which includes a core of a multiplicity of inorganic reinforcing fibers, a mixed powder provided in the interstices between the fibers and including a finely divided carbonaceous binder pitch and a finely divided coke, and a flexible sleeve formed of a thermoplastic resin and surrounding the core.
