Abstract: To impregnate graphite of the GMZ brand with liquid aluminum alloy D16, a high-pressure method and apparatus previously used for impregnating carbon frames with liquid coal pitch in the isostatic technology for the production of carbon-carbon composite materials were used. The graphite blank and the amount of aluminum alloy calculated from the initial porosity of graphite were placed in a thin-walled container, degassed in a vacuum furnace, after which the container with the contents was sealed. Thermobaric treatment was carried out at a temperature of 750°C and pressure of 100 and 200 MPa. After finishing the treatment, the density and porosity of the obtained metallographic composites, as well as their compressive strength, were determined. As a result of these thermobaric treatments, the density and compressive strength of the obtained composites increased significantly, and the porosity decreased markedly.
