Product details

Carbon fiber rods are a composite rod material consisting of carbon fibers and a matrix (such as resin). Carbon fiber rods are usually made from high-tech composite carbon fiber filaments, which are impregnated with vinyl resin, cured at high temperature, and pultruded (or wound).

Carbon fiber rods are made of high-tech composite material carbon fiber raw filaments pultruded (or wound) by dipping vinyl resin for high temperature curing. Carbon fiber has become one of the most important high-performance fiber materials at present; carbon fiber has the advantages of high strength, long life, corrosion resistance, light weight, low density, etc. It is widely used in kites, model airplanes for aviation, brackets for lamps, spindles for PC equipments, etching machines, medical equipments, sports equipments, and other mechanical equipments. Dimensional stability, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, small coefficient of thermal expansion, self-lubricating and energy-absorbing anti-vibration and a series of excellent properties. It is characterized by high specific modulus, fatigue resistance, creep resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance.

Product Features

1. Light weight, high strength: its specific gravity is 1.4-1.5g/cm, only one-fourth of that of steel, and it is extremely convenient for transportation and construction and installation, and its strength is dozens of times of that of plastic products compared with that of plastic products, so light weight and high strength is one of the remarkable features of carbon fiber rod composites.

2, Corrosion resistance, anti-aging, long service life: carbon fiber rods can resist acid, alkali, salt, some organic solvents and other corrosive erosion, in the field of corrosion prevention has other metal incomparable superiority, and has a better water resistance and anti-aging, so no matter in corrosive environments and harsh open-air, wet environment operations, its service life of up to 15 years or more.

3, Good safety, high impact resistance, strong designability, is one of the indispensable new alternative materials for modern industrial and agricultural products.

Applications

Carbon fiber is a general term for fibers containing more than 90% carbon, named for their high carbon content. Carbon fiber has a variety of excellent properties of elemental carbon, such as small specific gravity, heat resistance, thermal shock resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, etc., but also has the fiber's windability and excellent mechanical properties. In particular, it has high specific strength and specific modulus, in the adiabatic conditions, can withstand high temperatures of 2000 ℃, is an important industrial fiber materials, suitable for reinforced composite materials, ablative materials and insulation materials. It is a new type of material developed in the early 1960s, and has now become an indispensable and novel material in modern society.

The earliest application of PAN carbon fiber in leisure products is fishing rods. Nowadays, the annual production of carbon fiber fishing rods in the world is about 12 million, which is equivalent to about 1,200 tons of carbon fiber usage. The application of carbon fiber in golf clubs was started in 1972, the annual production of carbon fiber golf clubs in the world is about 40 million, equivalent to 2,000 tons of carbon fiber. The application of tennis racket was started in 1974, the world's annual production of carbon fiber racket about 4.5 million, the need for carbon fiber dosage of about 500 tons. In other areas, carbon fiber is also widely used in skis, snow boats, ski poles, baseball bats, road races, and marine sporting goods.

People recognize the properties of carbon fiber such as lightweight, fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance, and thus began to be widely used in the aerospace industry. In the field of astronautics, high-modulus carbon fibers have long been used in artificial satellites and other applications due to their lightweight (rigidity), dimensional stability of thermal conductivity, and have begun to be used in communication satellites such as Iridium.

The modeling compound is mainly blended in the form of short fibers for use in thermoplastic resins, and can be widely used in household appliances, office machines, semiconductors, and their related fields due to its reinforcing, anti-static, and electromagnetic wave shielding effects.

Pressure vessels are mainly used in compression (CHG) tanks and air breathing apparatus for firefighters, including all tanks produced with CF filament winding. Other fuel containers, such as CNG tanks, are heavy if made of metal in the past, and must be lightweight in order to operate over longer distances. As a result, all-composite containers using metal with a fiber-wound or plastic liner are being used in practical production applications. Air respirators are recognized as CF products by the DOT in the U.S., and their market demand will grow dramatically in the future.

In recent years in the field of civil engineering and construction, rely on carbon fiber for seismic repair and reinforcement of the construction method, highway bridges, ground, beams, buildings and beams, frames, and smoke tubes and other bending reinforcement, the modulus of carbon fiber becomes particularly important.

The market demand for carbon fiber is growing in ferries, large speedboats, and other boat types.

The growth trend for carbon fiber is even stronger in energy and related fields, including wind turbine blades, fuel cell electrodes, flywheels, and other applications. Although the use of wind power generation has yet to be further promoted, these applications can give full play to the strengths of carbon fiber.

Carbon fiber applications, in addition to those involving previous X-ray medical devices, electronic devices and other related fields (except for rotating cylinders for enriched uranium), various mechanical parts, electrical parts, umbrella skeletons, helmets and other life-related items, as well as new items such as the frames of trucks, structural bodies of vehicles, refrigerated boxes, home elevators, and so on.
