What is carbon plain fabric?
Carbon plain cloth is a kind of fabric made of interwoven carbon filament(carbon roving ,carbon tow ), the texture is plain (also called plain weave). Plain weave is one of the most common weaveing methord and makes the fabric stronger and more durable. Carbon fiber woven fabric is weaved by 1K, 3K, 6K, 12K, 24K carbon filament. The models of carbon fiber include T300, T700, T800, M30, M35, M40, T1000, high strength type, high strength medium mold, high strength high mold, the carbon fiber filaments we use include many well-known domestic brands and well-known imported brands, such as: Janpan's Toray and
TEIJIN , Mitsubishi Chemical, The United States'Hexcel and
ZOLTEK, South Korea's HYOSUNG,Turkey's AKSACA, Belgium's CYTEC SOLVAY GROUP, Germany's SGL. Weaving patterns include plain weave, twill weave, and satin weave, Jacquard. Its applications mainly include aerospace, automotive parts, sports equipment, building reinforcements, and decoration.

- High-performance carbon plain fabric has excellent properties such as light weight, high strength, high modulus, conductivity, high temperature resistance, fatigue resistance, erosion resistance, low expansion coefficient, good designability and compoundability.
- High strength (5 times that of steel)
- Excellent heat resistance (can withstand high temperatures above 2000°C)
- Excellent thermal shock resistance
- Low thermal expansion coefficient (small deformation)
- Small heat capacity (energy saving)
- Small specific gravity (1/5 of steel)
Applications of carbon plain fabric
Carbon fiber is a light but very strong material made of carbon atoms that provides excellent strength and stiffness. Carbon fiber plain fabric is widely used in many fields due to its excellent properties, including but not limited to the following aspects:
Aerospace industry: used to manufacture aerospace devices such as airplanes, helicopters, and spacecraft. The light weight and high strength of carbon fiber make aircraft more energy-saving and have better performance.
Automobile industry: widely used in automobile manufacturing, such as body components, racing parts, etc. Carbon fiber can improve car's performance and reduce its overall weight, improving fuel efficiency and safety.
Sporting Goods: used to manufacture high-end sports equipment, such as bicycle frames, golf clubs, tennis rackets, etc. The high strength and light weight properties of carbon fiber help improve the performance of sports equipment.
Industrial products: used in the manufacturing field to make various mechanical parts, pipes, chemical equipment, etc., and are favored for their corrosion resistance, high strength and lightweight properties.
Ship building: used in the manufacture of ship components, the high strength and corrosion resistance of carbon fiber make it an ideal ship material. Overall, carbon fiber plain fabric has broad application prospects in various fields due to its excellent mechanical properties, durability and lightweight properties.
