How do you manufacture industrial grade carbon fibre products

Manufacturing industrial-grade carbon fiber products is a highly specialized process that involves several steps. In India, Carbon Fiber Manufacturers like Bhor Composites are at the forefront of this industry. Here's a simplified overview of the process:

Raw Material Selection: High-quality carbon fiber starts with carefully selecting precursor materials, typically polyacrylonitrile (PAN) or pitch. The precursor is processed to create carbon fiber.

Polymerization: PAN-based carbon fiber production involves heating the precursor to create a stable polymer. Pitch-based carbon fiber, on the other hand, is created by heating coal tar or petroleum pitch.

Spinning: The polymer is spun into fibers, which are then heated to remove non-carbon elements, leaving behind carbon-rich fibers.

Carbonization: The fibers undergo carbonization, a high-temperature treatment, to eliminate impurities and increase the carbon content.

Surface Treatment: The carbon fibers' surface is modified for improved bonding with resins.

Weaving: The carbon fiber is woven into fabrics, like unidirectional fabrics available at Bhor Composites, to provide strength and directional reinforcement.

Resin Impregnation: The fabric is impregnated with epoxy or other resins, creating a composite material.

Curing: The composite is cured under controlled conditions to harden the resin.

Cutting and Shaping: The cured composite is cut and shaped according to the desired product.

Quality Control: Stringent quality checks ensure the final product meets industrial standards.

Bhor Composites, among other Carbon Fiber Manufacturers in India, plays a crucial role in advancing carbon fiber technology, offering high-quality materials like unidirectional fabrics that are integral in various industries, from aerospace to automotive and more.
