Basics
- A Composite Material consisting of Carbon Fiber reinforcement suspended in an Artificial Graphite matrix
- Made via using Carbon Fiber (CF) matting, winding, or some sort of other "preform"
- The main variation in methodology is what process is used for the graphite production
- The Three Main Processes Are:
- Liquid Impregnation
- Via Pitch or Resin (Need to see if Thermoplastics are an option)
- Chemical Vapor Infiltration or CVI
- Less info on this proces, but "Film Boiling Chemical Vapor Infiltration" (FB-CVI) is the fastest method supposedly
- Chemical Vapor Deposition or CVD
- Liquid Impregnation
- There are various grades, mainly in how the carbon fiber is arranged, and the purity of the final graphite
- Main use cases are where high strength and temperature resistance are needed (often low weight too, but not always NEEDED)
- Often aerospace (The Space Shuttle used this material for it's Nose Cone, and the Wing's Leading Edges for instance)
