Well known, the carbon fiber has many advantages over the mechanical properties of the fibers and other physical properties as a structural material has been applied, such as aerospace aircraft, sports equipment, etc., and reinforcing materials in many fields; application as a functional material of carbon fiber recently developed soon, the carbon fiber paper is one example.

First, we get to know the next - a carbon fiber material.
Carbon fiber paper refers to the function of paper with a certain carbon fiber content. Carbon fiber content of the paper is available from 2% -100%. Pitch-based carbon fibers, polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber and rayon-based carbon fibers can be used as raw material for carbon fiber paper, carbon fiber properties due to these differences, the different prices, determine its carbon fiber paper of performance and cost. PAN-based carbon fiber paper, better overall performance; soft with a rayon-based carbon fiber paper, performance, anti-aliasing; using pitch-based carbon fiber paper, lower prices. The selection of the carbon fiber material according to the paper to complete the performance requirements may be, and sometimes several carbon fibers are mixed together to be used. In order to improve the performance of carbon fiber paper-making process, the carbon fiber material pre-treatment generally should. Currently on the market there are several companies launched a special carbon fiber for papermaking pitch-based carbon fiber, carbon fiber paper production provides a convenient.

In the production of carbon fiber paper with which the production process?
Ordinary carbon fiber paper production process is a conventional pulp and paper process made borrowed, it is l-8mm length of carbon fibers and plant fibers (or staple fibers) are mixed and beaten using a paper machine and then molded into the wet pulp. This carbon fiber sheet of carbon fiber content is typically 5% -60%, such as carbon fiber content and then high in the process, there are still some difficulties, but the length of the carbon fiber is also relatively short, because the length is too long, difficult time beating the carbon fiber winding dispersed; these factors to some extent, affected the improvement of the performance of carbon fiber paper. Currently, a new process is called dry paper is on the rise, it is the use of airlaid technology will be as thick woven carbon fiber paper, and then the finishing post is made of carbon fiber paper. This paper fiber length long, good mechanical properties of paper, and the production rate, environmental pollution, is a very promising development of the papermaking process.

High-performance carbon fiber paper than conventional carbon fiber paper having a better performance, or better conductivity, chemical composition or more pure, or has other more excellent physical and chemical properties. High-performance carbon fiber paper regardless of the raw materials or the manufacturing process requirements, than ordinary carbon fiber paper complex. At present, only a few countries in the world capable of manufacturing.

Carbon fiber paper exactly what performance?
As a functional material, a carbon fiber having excellent physical and chemical properties, can have a carbon fiber paper, and because the state of the fibers in a random arrangement of short fibers, isotropic properties, and long fiber products (such as no sheeting) performance of the to the opposite sex. Therefore, the uniformity of the performance requirements of high places, the carbon fiber paper advantage.

Carbon fiber paper having a conductivity, a resistivity of from 107-10-3Ω · cm range, the factors of carbon fiber paper resistivity impact mainly carbon fiber content and the carbon fiber itself resistivity; addition, the length of the carbon fibers, the paper density, and thickness, as well as processing and finishing craft paper, have a direct impact on the resistance of carbon fiber paper and its stability.

Carbon fiber paper with excellent electric performance. After the carbon fiber paper is energized at the appropriate resistance and voltage, has excellent heating performance, it is generally in the range of the heating temperature is 30-250 ℃, electric conversion efficiency of> 97%, than traditional materials savings of 15% -30%, and also there is a less than other heating material properties, it's far-infrared - heat radiation conversion rate of> 70%, but also emits far infrared 5-20μm, which is adapted to the human blood circulation, far infrared health care function wave. Therefore, the carbon fiber paper is a very valuable with the development of planar heating material.

Carbon fiber is a resistive type absorbing materials, electromagnetic wave absorption and reflection have certain properties, which is used to mask material and absorbing materials. Literature describes chopped carbon fiber composites than for continuous long fiber composites have better radar wave absorbing effect.

Has a porous carbon fiber paper, carbon fiber together (or activated carbon fibers) its adsorption properties, the carbon fiber paper is a good adsorption filter material.
Carbon fiber paper through a certain process, high temperature and corrosion resistance.
