1) Additives for electrical-property modification of thermoplastics.
2) Impart ESD properties at very low loadings. This means easier molding, lower warpage, and better aesthetics when compared with standard carbon-fiber or stainless-steel fiber compounds. There is also a reduction in particle generation, ionic contamination, and outgassing from nanofiber compounds.
3) The high strength-to-weight ratio combined with superior stiffness have made carbon fibers the material of choice for high performance composite structures. For most current applications, composites are manufactured
with continuous fibers produced from the thermal decomposition of organic polymer precursors such as cellulose (rayon),
polyacrylonitrile (PAN), or pitch (Bacon 1973; Delmonte 1981; Donnet and Bansal 1984; Watt and Perov 1985; Fitzer
1985; Otani 1965; Edie 1990). Carbon fibers have been used to reinforce several matrices, including polymers, metals, and
also brittle materials such as carbon and ceramics. When used in the latter application carbon fibers require some form of
protective coating to prevent both chemical interaction with the matrix and attack by oxygen during service at high
temperature. In high temperature applications a critical factor that can determine the viability of a given fiber/matrix
composite is the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of the two components, which can result in mechanical
failure during thermal cycling.
