High Strength Durable Carbon Fiber Weave Roll Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Sheet

Product Specification

​​Carbon Fiber Plain Weave Fabric : High - Strength Composite Reinforcement For Aerospace​

​​1. Product Introduction​​

Carbon Fiber Plain Weave Fabric is a lightweight, high-strength composite material made by interlacing carbon fiber yarns in a simple over-under pattern. This uniform structure ensures balanced mechanical properties and exceptional durability. Key features include:

• ​​High Tensile Strength​​: Ranges from ​​3,000–5,000 MPa​​, ideal for structural applications requiring minimal weigh

  .

• ​​Lightweight​​: Density as low as ​​1.5–2.0 g/cm³​​, critical for aerospace and automotive industries

  .

• ​​Corrosion Resistance​​: Impervious to acids, alkalis, and solvents, making it suitable for harsh environments

  .

• ​​Thermal Stability​​: Operates effectively up to ​​400°C​​ without significant degradation

  .

• ​​Electrical Conductivity​​: Non-conductive properties ensure safety in electronic and aerospace applications

  .

  
  

​​2. Manufacturing Process​​

1. ​​Precursor Processing​​:

   • Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers are stabilized at ​​200–300°C​​ and carbonized at ​​1,000–3,000°C​​ to form graphite-like structures

     .

2. ​​Yarn Formation​​:

   • Carbon filaments (5–25 µm diameter) are bundled into tows (e.g., 3K, 6K, 12K) for uniformity

     .

3. ​​Weaving​​:

   • Tows are interlaced in a plain weave pattern (0°/90°) using automated looms to create a tight, checkerboard structure

     .

4. ​​Surface Treatment​​:

   • Coated with sizing agents (e.g., silane) to enhance resin adhesion and UV resistance

     .

5. ​​Quality Control​​:

   • ISO 9001-certified testing for tensile strength, thickness uniformity, and fiber alignment

     .

​​3. Usage Precautions​​

• ​​Handling​​:

  • Wear ​​PPE (gloves, goggles)​​ to avoid fiber irritation; use sharp tools cautiously to prevent breakage

    .

• ​​Resin Compatibility​​:

  • Match fabric type (e.g., standard modulus vs. high modulus) with epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester resins

    .

• ​​Curing Conditions​​:

  • Maintain ​​120–150°C​​ and ​​0.5–1.0 MPa pressure​​ during curing to eliminate voids

    .

• ​​Storage​​:

  • Store in dry, ventilated areas (humidity <60%); avoid prolonged UV exposure to prevent coating degradation

    .
