摘要:
A method for manufacturing a composite material which includes carbon material in a matrix metal by first applying tetraisopropyltitanate to the carbon material so as to wet it, next drying the carbon material which is wetted with the tetraisopropyltitanate, and then combining the carbon material with the matrix metal. This drying may be done by heating up the carbon material which is wetted with the tetraisopropyltitanate to a temperature of 50.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. in the atmosphere. The tetraisopropyltitanate may be dissolved in ethanol when it is being applied to the carbon material. The matrix metal may be a metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum, magnesium, aluminum alloy, and magnesium alloy.
