I am very happy to say that our group, the only
academic institute in India at this moment has the capability to
fabricate/manufacture carbon carbon composites. The beauty of this material
is its high temp stability, which is close to 2000 degree C and used as
brake discs of aircraft, turbine rotor of jet
engine, high temperature reactor, plasma facing component of Tokomak fusion
reactor, nose cone of space craft, etc.
Would you like to work on this beautiful material
and to be a part of this high tech applications? Think once again? Let
us improve the density of this material in phase one.
