✦ Synopsis
The graphitization shrinkage of seven molded artit%% carbons made from a broad spectrum of filler materials with thermoplastic or thermosetting binders and baked to 1200°C was measured pe~ndic~~ to the grain orientation. Heat treatments were ~~orrned isotherm~y between 1500 and 2900°C for times between 0.5 and 4 hr. It is shown that the shrinkage rates of all the carbons can be described by a general kinetic law. The total shrinkage after infinite isothermal time is found to be temperature dependent. The characteristic temperature dependence of the shrinkage is determined by the binder system. The filler and other manufacturing parameters only influence the amount of shrinkage.

This paper describes an investigation of the dimensional behavior of unrestrained and spherically ,restrained isotropic carbons deposited at both high temperatures (> 1500°C; HTI carbons) and low temperatures (< 1500°C; LTI carbons) during irradiation at 600", lOOo", and 1250°C to fast-neutron fluen
Chemical vapor deposition of carbon from propylene on a nickel substrate at 800°C was studied using a microbalance and a scanning electron microscope. On samples reduced with hydrogen the deposition rate was found to be significantly less than on those not so treated. The difference is attributed to
