Accurate measurement of the cross section of the C(
)
O reaction is very important in nuclear astrophysics. Enriched C targets prepared with the HIgh energy VIbrational Powder Plating [HIVIPP] method for this purpose have been used successfully. Initially, however, the C deposits for studying this small cross-section partially peeled from their Au backings when irradiated with beam currents 
2 times the 7 
A pulsed 
-beam used previously. This problem was solved when the amorphous C powders were converted to graphite by heat treatment in a high-temperature furnace. We investigated powder heat treatments at temperatures of 2600 to 3500
C to reveal which conditions resulted in uniform and highly adhesive depositions on Au backings.
