Carbon Fiber Material Properties And Application Fields
Carbon fiber is a new type of structural material with a carbon content of more than 90%. It can be seen in many fields. In the production of important parts, carbon fiber composite materials have been gradually replaced by traditional metal materials. Let’s take a look at the characteristics and application areas of carbon fiber materials.
The performance characteristics of carbon fiber are as follows: 1. High tensile strength; 2. High modulus, elastic modulus above 240GPa; 3. Density is less than one-quarter of steel, one-half of aluminum alloy, and its specific strength is 16 times higher than that of steel , 12 times higher than aluminum alloy; 4. Ultra-high temperature and low temperature resistance, carbon fiber does not melt at a high temperature of 3000 degrees, and is still very soft at a low temperature of minus 180 degrees; 5. Corrosion resistance, good acid and alkali resistance, resistance to various media Corrosion; 6. The thermal expansion coefficient is small, and there will be no explosion under the condition of large temperature difference; 7. Anti-radiation; 8. Good electrical conductivity.
Carbon fiber materials have many excellent properties, and their application fields are becoming more and more extensive. The main applications include: Field, where rockets, missiles and flight equipment are applied. The weight and noise are greatly reduced, which further increases the boosting force of enterprise products, saves resources and uses a large amount of fuel; in the military field, the development of small, light, long-life and stable new weapons is inseparable from the application of carbon fiber; in the field of civilian appliances, The application of carbon fiber materials is effective to reduce the weight of the aircraft and improve the performance of the aircraft; sports development and leisure daily necessities are used, and there are many carbon fiber composite materials and their products companies, including rackets, golf clubs, skis, fishing rods, bicycles and a series of related products;
China Be-cu Prototype Material Technology Co., Ltd. has a production workshop of more than 5,000 square meters, with large-scale hot presses, autoclaves, hydroforming tables, CNC high-speed milling machines and other large-scale equipment, which can meet the needs of customers in various fields of carbon fiber products , and related carbon fiber products have been exported to Europe and the United States for a long time.
ISO 9001 certified. BE-CU Prototype Offering CNC machining carbon fiber and other manufacturing services for carbon fiber marterial. Various capabilities include notching, labeling, drilling carbon fiber, grinding, laser cutting carbon fiber, finishing, plating, marking, CNC milling carbon fiber and turning carbon fiber.We stock high quality 3k carbon fiber sheet in a variety of thickness, types and finish. Its a great material used in applications where light weight and strength are needed such as drones. Unlike other workshops, we have no min order and are often filling orders with a single part. We also don’t make you pay for the full sheet and you only get charged for what is used. With a large selection of material, you should find everything you need to make your project come to life. We are also able to handle larger production runs and provide a competitive pricing. If we don’t have the material or finish you require, we are more the willing to look at bringing it in for you.
What Is Carbon Fiber?Carbon fiber is made of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) (or pitch, viscose) and other organic fibers by carbonization (removal of most elements except carbon) by pyrolysis method under inert gas at high temperature above 1,000 °C. Inorganic polymer fibers with a carbon content of more than 90%.
