Product type
Chopped carbon fiber is a composite material made by cutting carbon fiber strands into short lengths. This form of carbon fiber is known for its high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent stiffness, making it a popular choice in various industrial applications. It is typically combined with resins or polymers to create composite materials that enhance mechanical properties.
| Length | Typically ranges from 1 mm to 50 mm |
| Fiber diameter | Usually between 5 to 10 microns |
| Tensile strength | Approximately 2000 to 6000 MPa |
| Density | Around 1.5 to 2.0 g/cm³ |
| Thermal conductivity | Varies from 5 to 20 W/mK |
When selecting chopped carbon fiber, consider the required length and diameter for your specific application, as these can affect the composite's performance. It is also important to specify the desired tensile strength and density based on the mechanical properties needed. Certifications may be relevant depending on the industry, so inquire about any necessary standards. Be clear about the quantities needed to ensure accurate pricing and availability.
