Annealed pyrolytic graphite is a type of synthetic graphite that is produced through a high-temperature process known as pyrolysis, where organic materials (usually gas, such as methane) are decomposed in an inert atmosphere to form carbon. The term "annealed" refers to a subsequent heat treatment that enhances the structural properties of the graphite.
