Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 43 words
A method of forming a graphite composite which consists in 1. heating a graphitizable carbon-forming material to form mesophase; 2. adding a graphitizable carbon fiber thereto; 3. forming or casting the shaped article from (2); and 4. carbonizing and graphitizing the formed article.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 43 words
A method of forming a graphite composite which consists in 1. heating a graphitizable carbon-forming material to form mesophase; 2. adding a graphitizable carbon fiber thereto; 3. forming or casting the shaped article from (2); and 4. carbonizing and graphitizing the formed article.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the carbon fiber is selected from the group of carbon yarn, chopped fibers, felt, tow and batting.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method of claim 1 wherein about 1 to about 50 weight percent of carbon fiber is added to step (2).
