FAQ
What is carbon fiber?
Carbon fiber is a strong, lightweight material made from thin strands of carbon atoms bonded together in a crystalline structure. It is widely used in aerospace, automotive, sports, and industrial applications due to its high strength-to-weight ratio.
What are the main advantages of carbon fiber?
- Extremely strong yet lightweight
- High stiffness and rigidity
- Corrosion-resistant
- Heat-resistant and has low thermal expansion
- Aesthetic appeal with a sleek, modern look
What are the disadvantages of carbon fiber?
- Expensive to produce compared to metals and plastics
- Brittle under impact (can crack instead of bending)
- Difficult to repair once damaged
- Complex and labor-intensive manufacturing process
