pyrolytic carbon electrodes
I have heard of glassy carbon making amazing electrodes, but what about pyrolytic carbon?
I haven't found any information on wikipedia or Google about it's conductivity or use in electrodes.

Pyrolytic graphite has essentially the same properties as graphite, except it can be cleaved into sheets since the molecular arrangement is oriented
that way. I would guess it would behave similarly to graphite except probably flake off more often and is a shit-ton more expensive.
Wikipedia and Hochtemperatur-Werkstoffe GMBH say that glassy carbon is the most chemically resistant form of carbon, and that makes sense.
