Carbon fiber

fabric

Unidirectional Woven Tapes in Carbon Fiber have a single orientation 0º, produced with conventional technology warp-weft. Weft direction is normally in “E” glass fibre, and can be thermofixed, a process which gives more stability to cutting and handling. Unidirectional Woven Tapes in Carbon Fiber are produced in a standard width from 20mm to 500 mm. Currently the production range of unidirectional tapes goes from 200 gr/M² to 1200 gr/M². Resin Compatibility Carbon fibers fibers used for the production of our multiaxial – non crimp fabrics are coated with a broad range of sizing to provide compatibility with multiple resin systems. Selcom Multiaxial – Non Crimp Fabrics (NCFs) are manufacured to meet the individual needs of our customers. All the fabrics can be based on the final application in order to deliver the expected performance. Fiber orientation Selcom Multiaxial – Non Crimp Fabrics (NCFs) are made up of layers with parallel fibres laid in different orientations, stitched with texturized polyester yarn. The most commonly used Multiaxial - Non Crimp Fabrics (NCF) are oriented at ±45º or 0º90º,but it’s also possible to have ±30º or ±60º on request. The longitudinal direction of 0° is always the direction of the length of the roll and the stitching direction. Drapeability The parallel fibre layers are stitched with a texturized polyester yarn. There can be different stitching types, depending on the final application. Our stitching patterns are Tricot, Pillar (Chain) or Pillar-Tricot.
