CARBON FIBERS - HAUKE LENGSFELD HENDRIK MAINKA ...

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.
