graphitized carbon
A
graphitic carbon
with more or less perfect three-dimensional hexagonal crystalline order prepared from
non-graphitic carbon
by
graphitization heat treatment
.
Note:
Non-graphitizable carbons
do not transform into
graphitic carbon
on heat treatment at temperatures above
and therefore are not graphitized carbons.
