Lightweight Carbon Fibers Find New and Extensive Applications in Automotive and Aerospace Industries

The increasingly stringent emission norms in the US and Europe like the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards that require cars and light-duty trucks to run 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025 has made a strong case for the substitution of steel with carbon fibers. Carbon fibers are nearly five-times stronger than steel, three times lighter, twice as stiff and have better yield strength. Studies have shown that carbon fiber composites can reduce the weight of the vehicle by up to 50 percent…
