A composite plastic made with graphite fibers noted for light weight strength and stiffness
An allotrope of carbon consisting of planes of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal arrays with the planes stacked loosely that is used as a dry lubricant and in "lead" pencils
Mineral consisting of a form of carbon; it is soft, black, and lustrous and has a greasy feeling; used in pencils, crucibles, lubricants, paints, and polishes
a package developed by SIL to provide "smart rendering" for complex non-Roman writing systems in an extensible way It is programmable using a language called Graphite Description Language (GDL) Because it is extensible, it can be used to provide rendering for minority languages not supported by Uniscribe
Crystalline carbon used in very pure form as a moderator, principally in gas-cooled reactors, but also in Soviet-designed RBMK reactors
n 1 A soft, black carbon-based substance used to render a drawing 2 Artwork, sometimes called pencil art, made from such a process
An allotrope of carbon consisting of planes of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal arrays with the planes stacked loosely. Used as a dry lubricant, and in lead pencils. Is edible
A form of carbon often added to plastic to increase its stiffness and reduce weight, graphite is also the material used in the weave of a carbon fibre chassis
A crystalline form of carbon having a laminar structure, which is used as a lubricant It may be of natural or synthetic origin
Graphite is a soft black substance that is a form of carbon. It is used in pencils and electrical equipment. a soft black substance that is a kind of carbon, used in pencils, paints, and electrical equipment (graphit, from graphein ( -GRAPHY); because it is used in pencils). or plumbago or black lead Mineral allotrope of carbon. It is dark gray to black, opaque, and very soft. Its layered structure, with rings of six atoms arranged in widely spaced parallel sheets, gives it its slippery quality. It occurs in nature and is used (mixed with clay) as the "lead" in pencils. It is also used in lubricants, crucibles, polishes, arc lamps, batteries, brushes for electric motors, and nuclear reactor cores
A synthetic material used for shaft and head production It is produced through a series of heating steps to make soft, black carbon graphite filaments Graphite fibers may differ greatly in strength and modulus
It is used for pencils (improperly called lead pencils), for crucibles, and as a lubricator, etc
"Graphite" racquets are made from a mixture of a carbon fiber and a plastic resin
A stiff, lightweight, spaceage composite material commonly used for chassis, suspension arms, shock towers, and other parts of a vehicle's chassis
A stiff, lightweight, space age composite material commonly used for chassis, suspension arms, shock towers, and other parts of a vehicle's chassis
A form of carbon used in instrument construction Graphite fiber, when set into resin, has a high stiffness-to-weight ratio and provides strength and stability to bass necks
An extremely light and flexible material used to make rod blanks and rod components
A crystalline form of carbon, commonly used in glassworking tools because it does not burn or stick to hot glass
(aka black lead or plumbago) A soft black mineral substance, a form of carbon, available in powder, stick, and other forms It has a metallic lustre and a greasy feel Compressed with fine clay, it is used in lead pencils (though contemporary lead pencils contain no lead), lubricants, paints, and coatings, among other products
This is the gray "lead" material inside pencils Graphite is an excellent moderator and absorber of neutrons in a nuclear reactor
A form of carbon used in very pure form as a moderator, principally in gas-cooled reactors, but also in Soviet-designed RBMK reactors
A form of carbon It is unusual in that it is a non-metal that allows a current through it It is a non-metallic conductor
One of the four forms of carbon In EDM, a popular material used for electrodes which has high heat resistance and transfers electric current very efficiently
