This book presents detailed information on the production and
properties of carbon fibers derived from lignin precursors.
Focusing on future directions in the carbon fiber industry, it also
introduces a novel process for obtaining high-purity lignin, a key
aspect in the manufacture of high-quality carbon fiber. Carbon
fiber is currently the most preferred lightweight manufacturing
material and is rapidly becoming the material of choice for
manufacturers around the world. Although more than 80% of
commercial carbon fiber is estimated to use PAN (polyacrylonitrile)
as a precursor, carbon fiber manufactured from PAN is expensive and
therefore its application is limited to high-performance structural
materials. Lignin is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature
after cellulose and offers a carbon-rich, renewable resource. As a
byproduct of the pulp and paper industry and the production of
cellulosic ethanol, lignin is also available at low cost, making it
an economically attractive alternative to PAN for the production of
carbon fibers, as highlighted in this book. The information
presented will be of interest to all those involved in the
investigation of carbon fiber materials, carbon fiber manufacturers
and carbon fiber users.
