Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are essential in industries like aerospace, automotive, and renewable energy due to their strength, lightweight nature, and chemical resistance. However, their ...

Carbon fibers are essential in aviation, wind energy, and lightweight construction. However, since they are based on petroleum, their production has been very harmful to the environment. A research ...

Carbon fibers consist of thin filaments (5–10 micrometers in diameter) made of long chains of carbon atoms arranged in a polycrystalline structure. These fibers contain 92–100 wt% anisotropic carbon ...

When crude oil is processed, a lot of grungy byproducts are left over. A new study indicates that a couple of those substances can be used to make low-cost carbon fibers, which could in turn find use ...

Carbon fibre remains a material of keen interest due to its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and versatility in high-performance applications. In recent years, the production processes have ...

This blog is a compilation of publicly available information on Safran Group’s (Paris, France) production of carbon fiber-reinforced carbon (carbon/carbon) brake discs for aircraft. The company ...

to manufacture and market carbon fiber and carbon fiber composites, and this week news comes that plastics and petrochemicals supplier Sabic has acquired a license for carbon fiber technology ...

To dispel the misconception that composite materials cannot be recycled, Thermolysis is dedicated to developing a range of products that can be entirely recycled, utilizing recycled materials as a ...
