Advantages and Applications of Carbon Fiber Sheets

2025-09-18 11:35:50

With the increasing advantages of carbon fiber composite materials, carbon fiber products have found applications in many fields, particularly in lightweight applications, where they have successfully replaced traditional products. Among the numerous carbon fiber products, Carbon Fiber Sheets are undoubtedly one of the most widely used. This article will introduce you to this product.

1. Carbon Fiber Sheet Production

The vast majority of Carbon Fiber Sheets are produced and processed using a compression molding process. This involves stacking carbon fiber prepreg layers, then pressing and heating them to form the sheet. The entire sheet contains over 90% carbon fiber. The resulting sheet offers advantages such as low density, high strength, corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance, making it a popular choice across a wide range of industries.

2. Applications of Carbon Fiber Sheets

1) High Strength: Carbon fiber sheets possess exceptional strength, allowing them to carry greater weight in applications. For example, using carbon fiber for the center plate of a drone offers excellent strength advantages.

2) It has excellent X-ray transparency, making it suitable for use in medical equipment such as bed plates and headrests.

3) It has excellent tensile strength and structural stability, making it suitable for use in carbon fiber robotic arms.

4) The entire carbon fiber sheet exhibits excellent wear resistance and tensile strength, making it suitable for use in bridge and building reinforcement.

5) Its light weight and high strength make it suitable for a wide range of applications, such as drones,box panels and high-speed rail cladding.

3. Advantages of Carbon Fiber Sheets

The advantages of carbon fiber sheets are as follows:

1) Carbon fiber materials exhibit superior tensile strength, flexural strength, shear strength, and stiffness compared to most structural materials.

2) Carbon fiber sheets are chemically stable, resist deterioration and rust, and are acid, alkali, and oxidation-resistant, resulting in a long service life.

3) Carbon fiber has a very low density of approximately 1.7 g/cm³. Its light weight and high strength are its most significant advantages. For a given volume, it is three-quarters lighter than steel. 

4) Carbon fiber is a material manufactured in ultra-high-temperature environments, capable of withstanding temperatures of approximately 2500°C. In actual applications, carbon fiber is fused with epoxy resin to form a carbon fiber composite material, which can withstand temperatures around 250°C. Its low coefficient of thermal expansion means it rarely deforms with changes in operating temperature, resulting in relatively stable dimensions.

5) Carbon fiber panels exhibit excellent X-ray transparency.
