1. A carbon fiber composite material comprising an elastomer and a plurality of carbon nanofibers substantially uniformly dispersed in the elastomer, wherein:
- the elastomer has an unsaturated bond or a group, having affinity to the carbon nanofibers;
the elastomer in the composite material is in its uncrosslinked form; and
the composite material has a first spin-spin relaxation time (T2n) of 100 to 3000 μ
sec and a second spin-spin relaxation time (T2nn) of being absent or 1000 to 10,000 μ
sec, and a fraction (fnn) of components having the second spin-spin relaxation time of less than 0.2, as measured under conditions of an observing nucleus of 1H at 150°
C. by the Hahn-echo method using pulsed NMR technique.
