About Carbon Fiber Prepreg
Carbon fibers are fibers composed mostly of carbon atoms and have a diameter of about 3-15 micrometers. The carbon atoms are bonded together in crystals, which are aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. This alignment gives the fiber a high strength-to-volume ratio. Prepregs are materials consisting of reinforcing fibers that are pre-impregnated with thermoset and thermoplastic resins. These products are cured under high temperature and pressure and have properties that can be useful for a wide range of applications. Carbon fiber prepreg materials are used in aerospace and defense, wind energy, sports, and automotive applications. Composite prepregs in various fields have increased substantially over the last 10 years.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global carbon fiber prepreg market to grow at a CAGR of 10.62% during the period 2017-2021.
