Carbon materials have a long history in human societies. The history reaches from a dye pigment for cave painting to electrical and thermal conductors in big‐scale industrial processes. The modern production of iron, steel, and aluminum would not be possible without industrial carbon materials like graphite electrodes, carbon anodes, and refractory materials. Further, modern electronics would not exist without the help of graphite materials during their production. Finally, stiff and lightweight structures can be obtained with carbon fiber reinforced composites. Bulk materials like carbon blacks are essential for automotive tires and for paints and in the rubber industry. Activated carbon materials help keep our environment clean. Mentioning all the other plentiful applications would go beyond the scope.
