Abstract

The invention relates to an interpenetrating network of carbon fibrils and a polymer, which comprises a rigidized, three-dimensional macroscopic assemblage of a multiplicity of randomly oriented carbon fibrils and an innerpenetrating mass of an organic polymer. The invention also relates to methods of making and using such innerpenetrating networks.
