Do you know how to distinguish true and false carbon fiber?

2021-03-17

Carbon fiber is a very popular new material in the market at present, because it has high strength, light weight, high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, creep resistance, corrosion resistance and so on. The route of modern carbon fiber industrialization is precursor fiber carbonization process. The composition and carbon content of three kinds of raw fiber are shown in the table. At present, it has been used in medical equipment, automobile manufacturing, sporting goods, military and other places. With the increasing popularity, there are many fake carbon fiber products in the market.

Here are some ways to distinguish between real and fake carbon fiber

1. Handle. The real carbon fiber has obvious fiber feeling when touching, while the fake one just feels very smooth, so there is a big difference when touching with hands.
2. The weight of real carbon fiber is very light, only 1 / 4 of that of steel in the same volume, while the weight of fake carbon fiber will not be so light
3. Because fake carbon fiber is generally produced by plasticizing materials, it will gradually melt when meeting fire, while real carbon fiber can withstand high temperature, so it can withstand general flame temperature
4. The molecular structure of carbon fiber is hexagonal honeycomb. If it is impacted by external force, it will be broken like glass instead of deformed like steel
