Title:

THREE DIMENSIONAL MACROSCOPIC ASSEMBLAGES OF RANDOMLY ORIENTED CARBON FIBRILS AND COMPOSITES CONTAINING SAME

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2004137663

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

To provide a composition of matter consisting carbon fibrils, in details, an assemblage of a multiplicity of a randomly oriented carbon fibrils having low bulk density and can be used for a substrate or medium for various industrial and scientific purposes.

The composition of matter consists of a three-dimensional, macroscopic assemblage of a multiplicity of the randomly oriented carbon fibrils. The fibrils being substantially cylindrical with a substantially constant diameter, having c-axes substantially perpendicular to their cylindrical axis, being substantially free from pyrolytically deposited carbon and having diameter between about 3.5-70 nanometers, and the assemblage has relatively uniform physical properties along at least its one-dimensional axis and a bulk density of 0.001-0.50g/cc.
