We have proposed and developed a method for measuring the thermal conductivity of highly efficient thermal conductors. The measurement method was tested on pure metals with high thermal conductivity coefficients: aluminum (99.999 wt.

The relationship between electrical conductivity and texture and structure that formed when producing the material was examined. Correlation was determined between the texture sharpness and anisotropy of electrical conductivity, as well as the extent of impact from the substructural characteristics on the properties' values.

The mixtures were pressed and subsequently heat-treated to obtain porous matrices. The structural transformations of phenolic resin by heating up to 900 °C in oxygen and inert gas media were studied and the patterns of amorphization of fixed carbon formed on the walls of the pore system during carbonization were investigated.
