What is carbon fiber?
 
Manufacturing Process of Carbon Fiber (PAN-based)
 
Carbon fiber is made by carbonizing special acrylic fiber (precursor) as a raw material
 
Manufacturing Process of Carbon Fiber (PAN-based)
 
 
Product Range
HTA-12K is the most common carbon fiber (PAN-based) produced and used around the world.
 
Classified by number of filaments
Type Filament Symbol Filament Count Performance
HTA 1K 1000 Tensile strength: normally 400kgf / mm2or higher
3K 3000 Tensile modulus : 24x103kgf / mm2
6K 6000  
12K 12000  
24K 24000  
 
Classified by performance
Symbol Tensile Strength
( kgf / mm2 )
Tensile Modulus
( x103kgf / mm2 )
HTA ( High strength type: general use ) 400 24
UT ( Higher strength type ) 500- 24-
IM ( Intermediate modulus / High strength type ) 480-600 29-30
HM ( High modulus type ) 300- 35
UM ( High modulus / High strength type ) 350-500 40-68
Steel 40 21
 
Properties :
High in strength and modulus. A variety of products with a wide range of strength and modulus can be manufactured through the different processes
 
Other properties :
Chemically stable, resistant to acids, bases, and solvents, with a small coefficient of linear expansion, good dimensional stability, and conductivity. Fiber reinforcement materials can be produced by combining various materials.
