What's carbon fiber ?

Updated: Sep 20, 2022


Carbon fiber are extremely strong and light fiber-reinfoced plastics that contain carbon fibers which is also known as carbon fiber reinforced polymers,carbon fiber reinforced plastics,carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRP,CRP,CFRTP) or carbon fiber composites.



Carbon fiber products are widely used wherever need high strength to weight ratio and stiffness parts,such as all kind of drones,automotive parts,sporting equipments,or luxury consumer and technical products.


The binding polymer is often a thermoset resin such as epoxy, but other thermoset or thermoplastic polymers, such as polyester, vinyl ester, or nylon, are sometimes used. The properties of the final CFRP product can be affected by the type of additives introduced to the binding matrix (resin). The most common additive is silica, but other additives such as rubber and carbon nanotubes can be used.
