Carbon fibre milled extra fine 0.1 mm

• Yields lightweight, hard filling compounds
• For epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester resins

Milled carbon is made from recycled fibres. The carbon fibres used therefore are equipped largely with PU-sizing. Most of the sizing evaporates due to heat generated at the milling process though. When dry the milled fibres form fibre balls, which dissolve and spread out evenly in resin.

*Average values obtained from technical data sheets of producers of ex-PAN ‘‘high strength’’ fibres that we use in our mixture for more than 90 %. The ≤ 10 % remaining are ‘‘high modulus’’ fibres from the same producers, i.e. TORAYCA^®, TOHO-TENAX, CYTEC... All these values are given as a rough guide.
