ANISOTROPIC GRAPHITE AND ANISOTROPIC GRAPHITE COMPOSITE

Provided is an anisotropic graphite for producing an anisotropic graphite composite that has excellent thermal conductivity characteristics and long-term reliability as a heat diffusing member. The anisotropic graphite has a crystal orientation plane that is parallel to an X-Z plane given an X-axis, a Y-axis perpendicular to the X-axis, and a Z-axis that is perpendicular to the plane defined by the X-axis and the Y-axis, and a specific number of pores having a specific size are formed on at least one plane among the planes parallel to the X-Y plane of the anisotropic graphite. 提供一种各向异性石墨，其用于制造各向异性石墨复合体，作为散热部件的该各向异性石墨复合体具备优越的热导特性及长期可靠性。以X轴、与X轴正交的Y轴、与由X轴及Y轴所规定的平面相垂直的Z轴来看，各向异性石墨的结晶取向面与X-Z平面相平行，所述各向异性石墨的与X-Y平面相平行的至少1个面上形成着特定个数的特定尺寸的孔。
