Recycled carbon fibres* from rovings (100 % Carbon) off different origins

• For highly loaded moulding and filling compounds
• Fast, good wetting
• For epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester resins

Application:
For manufacturing conductive coats and adhesives as well as highly loaded moulding and filling compounds. Chopped carbon fibre strands are added as soon as the resin/hardener compound is ready for processing. Any quantity can be added: the larger the quantity the higher the conductivity and strength.

Technical data:

• Specific weight: 1.7 g/cm³
• Filament diameter: 7 µm
• Sizing level: 1.4 %
• Bulk density: 450 g/dm³
• Tensile strength: 3500 MPa
• Tensile modulus: 230 GPa
• Elongation at break: 1.5 %

*Through recycling the high-quality but very energy-intensive raw material carbon fibre can be reused, which in turn justifies the high production costs. This also applies to the production of CFRP components whose total energy balance can be improved by the use of recycled carbon fibres. Recycled carbon fibres conserve resources, reduce waste and thus relieve the environment.
