Christopher John Spacie has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Carbon materials
    Patent number: 8034451
    Abstract: A graphite body comprises aligned graphite flakes bonded with a binder, in which the graphite has an average particle size of >200 ?m. Methods of forming such highly oriented graphite material include:— a) forming a mixture of a mesophase pitch with a graphite powder; b) rolling the mixture to align the graphite powder and to form a body of graphite and pitch; c) carbonising the body; and optionally d) graphitising the body. Pressing rather than rolling may be employed. Such graphite bodies have high thermal conductivity and anisotropy and may be used for thermal management.
