Teijin has launched a lightweight, strong and cost-effective carbon fiber woven fabric developed with the company's proprietary tow-spreading technology. The new woven fabric is made with 3K (3,000) carbon fiber filament yarn for applications requiring low weight and design flexibility, such as automotive interior materials and sporting goods. Teijin, using its in-house tow-spreading technology, succeeded in thinning the 3K fabric from a molding thickness of 0.2 mm to approximately 0.15 mm, the same as that of 1K woven fabric, when molded into carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP).
