| Tenax® chopped and milled carbon fibers have excellent processability, resin compatibility, and translation of mechanical and electrical properties. Different grades have been created to optimize chemical compatibility with thermoplastic or thermoset resin types. The standard chopped fiber length of 6mm is suitable for use in most feeding systems and batch blends. Water dispersible grades are offered in lengths of 3, 6, 12, and 25 mm and are designed for use in water based slurry applications. Milled carbon fibers are un-sized and suitable for use in most resins and manufacturing processes. The aspect ratio of milled carbon fibers provides mechanical reinforcement, electrical conductivity and dimensional stability to thermoplastic and thermoset compounds and mixtures.Information provided by Teijin Carbon America, Inc. |
