Precursor Structure-Fiber Property Relationships in Polyacrylonitrile-BasedCarbon Fibers

摘要

Carbon fibers occupy a premier position among high performance fiber structures,with a combination of physical and mechanical properties, in tension and in compression, that makes them uniquely suitable for application in many advanced fiber-reinforced composites. Fundamental investigations pertaining to precursor fibers and conversion processes in the last decade have paved the way for significant improvements in mechanical properties, especially in the tensile
