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 ...

Carbon fibers are polymers of carbon/graphite arranged in large sheets of hexagonal rings and confer several advantages such as high stiffness, high tensile strength, high chemical resistivity, high ...

Carbon fiber has been a staple in the cycling industry for over a decade now. Once reserved for the top racers, carbon fiber is pretty much ubiquitous when it comes to all things on two wheels. From e ...

In the past, retired wind turbine blades were mostly disposed of by incineration or burial, which not only put pressure on the environment but also wasted valuable carbon fibre resources. National ...

Anyone who's mucked about with consumer-grade 3D printers knows that it's infinitely cool to create stuff with them, but you ...
