Abstract: Pitch compositions suitable for spinning may comprise: a pitch having a softening point (SP) below 400° C. and is capable of achieving a radial Hencky strain prior to break of about 0.7 to about 10, at spinning temperature (Ts) ranging from about SP−30° C. to about SP+80° C. Methods for producing a carbon fiber from a pitch composition at a temperature within a spinning temperature (Ts) range may comprise determining a temperature range wherein the maximum radial Hencky strain (εR) lies above a minimum process radial Hencky strain, and wherein the minimum process radial Hencky strain is within a range of about 0.7 to about 10. The spinning temperature (Ts) range may be determined by measuring a maximum radial Hencky strain (εR) prior to break at a series of different temperatures and strain rates. Carbon fiber composites may comprise of the said carbon fiber.

Abstract: Nucleation enhancement and/or growth rate improvement of mesophase in pitch compositions derived from hydrocarbon feedstocks can be achieved by: reacting in a reaction zone a blend comprising an isotropic feed and a seeding agent, to produce a reacted pitch having a mesophase content of about 10 vol % to 100 vol %, based on the total volume of the reacted pitch, and a softening point (Tsp) below 400° C.; wherein the seeding agent is about 50 wt % or less, based on the total weight of the blend; wherein the seeding agent has a mesophase content of about 0.01 vol % to 100 vol %, based on the total volume of the seeding agent.

Abstract: Identification of aromatic interactions, e.g. π-interactions, of mesophase formation, and methods related thereto, including the use of fluorescent light and optical imaging and/or detection schemes for the identification of π-interactions of mesophase formation, and methods related thereto. Methods include interacting fluorescent light with a pitch composition; receiving fluorescent light emissions from the pitch composition; and detecting the onset of mesophase formation upon detecting a normalized fluorescence intensity (I/I0) of the fluorescent light emissions in the range of about 0.4 to about 0.7 at a wavelength in the range of about 430 nm to about 470 nm for an exposure of about 1.5 seconds.
