Carbon fiber products have technically been around for more than 150 years. Experiments with their predecessors happened as far back as the mid-1800s. Unfortunately, interest in carbon fiber materials waned shortly after that. However, some breakthroughs happened in the 1950s and 1970s. This caused manufacturers to suddenly become interested in the material again. After that, […]
Are you fed up with using materials that are easy to break? If so, you might want to consider carbon fiber products. They’re four times stiffer than glass-reinforced plastic. Low-quality materials limit your business’s potential. To stay competitive today, you need access to better materials to help you stand out. Imagine never having to worry […]
Even though composite materials emerged in the middle of the 20th century, their popularity has increased over the last few years. Cast molding is the best way to make composite materials. But why is it the best choice for making composites? To help you make an informed decision about which method of molding is best […]
Did you know that the invention of carbon fiber goes all the way back to 1860? Carbon fiber has been touted by many to be a material of the future. It’s durable, lightweight, heat-resistant, and corrosion-resistant, making it a versatile composite ideal for many situations – and it has a world of potential for the medical […]
Leo Bakeland invented compression molding more than a century ago. The process of molding composite material has advanced considerably since those early years. Engineers use compression molding to manufacture everything from soft drink bottles to medical devices. But what is compression molding and how does it work? We’ll explore those topics and more below. What Is […]
Sixty percent of global consumers are willing to pay more for environmentally sustainable products, based on a recent study. If you are looking for eco-friendly products, it’s time to take a look at the benefits of composite material. Composites offer many environmental benefits. Read on to learn more about the top five environmental benefits of […]
Carbon Fiber technology as we know it was invited in 1964. Today, carbon material is used in everything from airplanes to cars and prosthetic limbs. Many modern technological advancements would not be possible without composite materials. So what makes carbon fiber so incredibly strong? We’ll take a quick look at the qualities of this carbon material […]
