Description: Carbon has been used as the most successful reinforcement for materials like glass, ceramics, metals and polymers. Carbon/carbon composites are used when extreme temperature conditions prevail. The authors give a comprehensive overview of the present status in this field as well as projections for new "high tech" materials.
