Filed:

Feb 11, 2000

Appl. No.:

9/502352

Inventors:

Frank Dillon - Granger IN
Charles A. Parker - Granger IN
Richard R. McCormick - Tucson AZ
Jonathon K. Chatwood - Tucson AZ
Mark Rigali - Tucson AZ

Assignee:

AlliedSignal Inc. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

C01B 3100
C01B 3102
C08J 914

US Classification:

423445R

Abstract:

The present invention provides an inexpensive, open cell, mechanically robust and graphitizable foam preform. The graphitizable foam is produced via a modified standard flower foam formulation. The invention provides a modified formula for such flower foams wherein a mesophase material is incorporated along with a corresponding reduction in the resole component. The mesophase material replaces 30-70% by weight (a target of 50% by weight) of the resole component of the formulation. The formulation is heated to effect foaming of the mixture, and then carbonized to produce an open cell, graphitizable foam preform.
