Carbon Fiber - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Carbon fibers (Fig. 4-1) which have been produced on either an industrial or a pilot scale are classified by the precursors used, as shown in Table 4-1 together with some characteristics of each fiber. The PAN-, isotropic-pitch- and mesophase-pitch-based carbon fibers are produced by the spinning of each precursor, polyacrylonitrile (PAN), isotropic pitch and anisotropic mesophase pitch ...
