This useful guide provides a hands-on approach to making carbon
fibers and their composites for those who need to use these
materials. The book begins with a brief history of carbon fiber
development, with definition of the terminology for all forms of
solid carbon, and the properties of elemental carbon and its
allotropic forms. Various carbon fiber precursors, surface
treatments, and sizes for a range of carbon fiber types available
on the world market are presented. The book gives an excellent
overview of the chemical and physical properties of carbon fibers
and their composites. In addition, common test and analysis methods
for demonstrating these properties are presented. Several chapters
describe typical processing methods for carbon fibers with dry and
also impregnated semi-finished products in applications such as
aerospace, wind, and automotive, as well as the construction
industry. The advantages and disadvantages of various manufacturing
processes based on application examples are shown. Considerations
regarding C-fiber recycling and sustainability (environmental
footprint) as well as new developments in the field of carbon fiber
manufacturing are intended to assist the reader in the selection
and understanding of material, process, and design to achieve
successful implementation.
