Scope of Section

We have been involved in research on high temperature materials such as various carbon materials. Currently, we are interesting in (1) evaluation methods for micro-structure/texture and properties of carbon materials, such as advanced C/C composites and carbon fibers, (2) techniques for controlling the interphase texture in carbon fiber reinforced composites, such as C/C composites and CFRP, and (3) preparation of ultra high purity materials and their evaluation as high temperature materilals
