Explanation of autoclave molding of CFRP (carbon composite)!
【What is Autoclave Molding】 Autoclave molding is a molding method used for composites such as CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic). It involves applying pressure using specialized equipment (an autoclave) under pressure other than steam: a type of pressure known as secondary pressure, and heating to induce a chemical reaction for molding. In the molding process of CFRP, carbon fibers are impregnated with thermosetting resin, layered, and then heated in an autoclave to form the final product. 【About Autoclaves】 An autoclave refers to a pressure-resistant device or container that can maintain a high internal pressure, as well as the processes conducted using such devices. In addition to CFRP molding, autoclaves are utilized in various fields, with one of the most notable applications being the sterilization of medical equipment. SHAPE FIELD is a technology company specializing in the autoclave molding of CFRP. For more details, please refer to the PDF data available for download.

basic information
What is CFRP? ■ CF (Carbon Fiber) = Carbon Fiber → PAN-based ・ Polyacrylonitrile is the raw material ・ Medium elasticity, high strength: tensile modulus 24t to 60t, tensile strength 330 to 600 kgf/mm² → Pitch-based ・ Petroleum pitch or coal pitch is the raw material ・ Many high-elasticity products: tensile modulus 5.5t to 95t, tensile strength 112 to 400 kgf/mm² Carbon fiber is a living material that supports future industries and is friendly to both people and the environment. ○ Durable → Extends the lifespan of manufactured products ○ Lightweight → Contributes to energy savings → Effective in reducing environmental burden → Highly useful as an environmental countermeasure material If you would like a free sample, please contact us.
