Abstract
The present invention provides a carbon-carbon composite material consisting of a matrix carbon and a fibrous reinforcing carbon, said matrix carbon and fibrous carbon consisting substantially of amorphous carbon and forming an interface without an intervening third material, wherein said composite material has a fracture surface showing a uniform vitreous light reflection, but when it is used as an anode and electrolytically etched in sulfuric acid-acidified water, a difference in the degree of etching arises between the matrix carbon and the fibrous carbon, and a method for the preparation thereof. The composite material has a high flexural strength and a very low gas permeability and is useful as a molding material in the fields of high temperature chemistry, the atomic energy industry and medicine.
