Carbon fibers are made almost entirely of graphite. Carbon fiber composite, sometimes referred to as "carbon fiber", is made of carbon fibers and a matrix material, which is usually a plastic such as epoxy.

What is the difference between carbon graphite and graphite?
because carbon graphite had carbon but graphite does not have carbon
Is graphene going to be put on the periodic table?
Yes Graphite is a MINERAL!!!!
Why is graphite suitable for making carbon contacts?
Graphite is an allotropic form of carbon.
Is graphite a metalloid?
graphite is a form of carbon that forms in layers which is why it is able to be used in pencils, because the layers can slide off and get left on the page. Anyway carbon is a non-metal so graphite is a non-metal.
What is a form of carbon that makes a good lubricant?
Graphite (I think)
Why do the freezing points of graphite and carbon are same?
Graphite is carbon
A diamond and your pencil lead graphite are made of this same element?
graphite in a pencil and diamond are from carbon .both are the allotrope of carbon
What matter is carbon graphite?
pure carbon. its the same as diamond
What are some of uses of graphite?
carbon and graphite are one in the same, graphite is a form of carbon a use for graphite is the lead in your pencil (it's not actually lead, it's graphite) and it is also a good lubricant ;)
What is the difference between carbon graphite and graphite?
because carbon graphite had carbon but graphite does not have carbon
Why are diamond and graphite polymorphic?
Diamond and Graphite are different states of the same element, Carbon.
What are some uses of carbon graphite?
carbon and graphite are one in the same, graphite is a form of carbon a use for graphite is the lead in your pencil (it's not actually lead, it's graphite) and it is also a good lubricant ;)
Is graphite a silicate or carbon?
Graphite is carbon.
How are diamond and graphite made the same?
They are not made the same- but they come from the same element- carbon. However, carbon can take different crystal shapes. One of those is graphite, a very different one is diamond.
Are carbon and graphite same material?
Yes. Graphite is an allotrope of carbon. Allotropes are composed of the same element but the arrangement differs. Diamond and fullerenes are also allotropes of carbon. Allotropes of carbon differ in the arrangement of the carbon atoms. The structure of graphite enables it to be used in pencils (the "lead") and as a lubricant, but the arrangement of carbon in diamond makes it the hardest substance known on the earth.
What is graphite made of?
Graphite is a form of carbon.
Why are diamonds and graphite not the same mineral?
They are the same mineral: carbon. The difference is in their molecular architecture.
