Answer / sahil joseph
According to the periodic table carbon lies in the list of
semiconductor having valency of 4 thus semiconductors have
the property that with increase in temp. their resistance
decreases. Thus when carbon brushes rub against the commutator
due to friction their temp. increases and resistance falls.
Thus they are used for collection of current in DC machines.
In AC systems slip rings are used.

Answer / prasad
THE PURPOSE OF CARBON BRUSHES ARE TO POLISHING THE SURFACE
OF THE COMMUTATOR AND TO REDUCE THE REACTENCE AT THE
COMMUTATOR.

Answer / guest
carbon is hard material compared to graphiate so it will
give a stainsail strength of graphite at the time of full
load runing condition.and graphite use for the just collect
the current and passing.
