In the large family of composite materials, fiber reinforced materials have always been the focus of attention. Since the advent of fiberglass reinforced plastics (GRP) reinforced with glass fiber and organic resin, carbon fiber, ceramic fiber, and boron fiber reinforced composites have been successfully developed, and their performance has been continuously improved, making the field of composite materials show a vibrant vitality. Let's take a look at the unique carbon fiber composite materials. Carbon fiber is a special type of fiber mainly composed of carbon elements, and its carbon content varies with the type, generally over 90%. Carbon fibers have the characteristics of ordinary carbon materials, such as high temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. However, unlike ordinary carbon materials, their appearance is significantly anisotropic, flexible, and can be processed into various fabrics, exhibiting high strength along the fiber axis. Carbon fibers have a small specific gravity and therefore have high strength. Carbon fiber is made of man-made chemical fibers with a high carbon content that do not melt during heat treatment, and is processed through heat stable oxidation, carbonization, and graphitization. The main use of carbon fibers is to composite with matrices such as resins, metals, and ceramics as well as to make structural materials. Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy resin composites have high specific strength and specific modulus among existing structural materials. Carbon fiber composites have advantages in areas with strict requirements for stiffness, stiffness, weight, and fatigue properties, as well as in situations requiring high temperature and chemical stability. Carbon fiber was produced in the early 1950s in response to the needs of cutting-edge science and technology such as rockets, aerospace, and aviation. It is now widely used in sports equipment, textiles, chemical machinery, and medical fields. With the increasingly stringent requirements of cutting-edge technology on the technical performance of new materials, scientific and technological workers are constantly striving to improve. In the early 1980s, high-performance and ultra-high-performance carbon fibers emerged one after another, which was another technological leap, marking that the research and production of carbon fibers had entered an advanced stage.
