Carbon fiber for Popular car after 2015 ?

Since for decades,  car manufacturers are raising the dream about used carbon fiber  in the production line of his car. But sky-high prices and time to create a detailed carbon fiber dream so long that it was only in the imagination. 


Currently, with several new technologies are developed, the dream of making carbon become fiber materials mainly of automobile industry the about the become reality. For many years, carbon fiber is used mainly on the car, racing to provide light weight and durability.

From known. almost detailed carbon fiber produced today is done in large oven with temperature and pressure. However to create a product such a hood must takes about 90 minutes. Meanwhile, only takes a minute to It a car rolling through a stage in It production line. So mainly equipped It carbon fiber on the expensive cars.


Recently, the production process with infrared heat sensors being researched that will replace  produced by autoclave help reduce It time to 17 minutes. Along with that, a new material melting faster than at lower temperatures, liquid water would quickly go on take the corners of  mold , It help produce a detailed time carbon fiber It only about 5 to 7 minutes.

Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the U.S. have to do some advanced research to find different materials especially polyethylene for cheaper. In addition, lignin also increased the likelihood of biomass carbon fiber. Both of these materials are available and plentiful, so if producing carbon fiber material, the price the also significantly reduced.
Carbon fiber makes light vehicle fuel economy and higher durability

In order to  more common carbon fiber, they must be made ​​quickly , meet , mass production rate of a production line cars today. So, it's no surprise that the world, automakers are looking for a carbon fiber manufacturing partners. For example, Toyota, Subaru and Nissan have agreed with the Japanese company Toray, BMW formed a joint venture with the German company SGL. BMW also "strong mouth" statement will produce the electric i3 entirely from carbon fiber.

As predicted by the experts, after 2015 the application of carbon fiber in the automotive manufacturing industry will grow , 10-15% / year.
