Carbon Fiber Fabric Description

Carbon fiber fabric is just like other fabrics except it uses carbon fibers instead of cotton, nylon, polyester, etc. The weave is coarser than fabrics used for clothing is more like a heavy canvas. Carbon fiber fabric needs to be laminated with a matrix (i.e. epoxy resin) to form a rigid structure.

Carbon Fiber Fabric Packing

Our Carbon Fiber Fabric is carefully handled during storage and transportation to preserve the quality of our product in its original condition.

How Do I Make Parts With Carbon Fiber Fabric?

Since carbon fiber fabric is soft and pliable just like other fabrics it needs a binder to make it rigid. This binder is known as the matrix or resin. Epoxy and vinyl ester resins are the most common materials used. The carbon fiber fabric is formed into the desired shape then the resin is added and cured.

Carbon Fiber Fabric FAQs

Q1: How is Carbon Fiber Fabric used in composites?

A1: Carbon fiber fabric is often used as a reinforcement in composite materials. When combined with a resin (such as epoxy or polyester), the carbon fiber fabric enhances the mechanical properties of the final product. The fabric is typically laid into molds and impregnated with resin, then cured to form a strong, lightweight composite material. This process is used in a variety of industries, from manufacturing airplane wings to creating custom car parts.

Q2: Can Carbon Fiber Fabric be cut and shaped?

A2: Yes, carbon fiber fabric can be easily cut into custom shapes using scissors or a rotary cutter, depending on the thickness and weave. Once cut, the fabric can be shaped to fit molds or used as a layer in composite structures. The fabric is flexible and can conform to complex geometries, making it ideal for applications where specific shapes are required.

Q3: Can Carbon Fiber Fabric be painted or coated?

A3: Yes, carbon fiber fabric can be painted or coated to achieve desired aesthetics or additional functional properties. The fabric itself has a smooth surface that can be primed and painted with specialized coatings, including UV-resistant paints. Some customers also apply clear coatings to enhance the appearance of the fabric and protect it from environmental damage.
