Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Fabrics Use in Aerospace and Defence Industry

Overview- Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Fabrics Before Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Fabrics were started to be used in Airplanes, Conventionally, aluminum constituted almost 65% of the weight of an airplane, which resulted in lower fuel efficacy, lesser load bearing capacity and higher cost. Enterprises in the aerospace and defence production industry then started seeking out ways for reducing weight, increasing fuel efficiency and improving overall system performance. While metal and metal alloys are still integral to aerospace design, the quest for innovative, lightweight materials eventually led to carbon composites. In this context, carbon fiber reinforced fabrics are rapidly emerging as the material of choice for the Aerospace and Defence production sector. Properties of Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Fabrics There are several reasons why carbon fabrics are finding wide spread acceptance in mission-critical applications in the Aerospace and Defence production sector: High Strength to weig...
