Abstract:
A pitch-based carbon fiber sliver providing a high-strength carbon fiber spun yarn is efficiently produced by providing a pitch-based carbon fiber mat comprising a mass of piled-up pitch-based carbon fibers of which fiber extension directions are aligned preferentially in one direction; and directly subjecting the carbon fiber mat to drawing and carding by means of a carding machine while moving the mat in said one preferential alignment direction. The thus-obtained carbon fiber sliver is drawn and twisted to produce a pitch-based carbon fiber spun yarn containing at least 3 wt. % of fibers having a fiber length of at least 150 mm, a number of primary twist of 50-400 turns/m and a tensile strength of at least 0.10 N/tex.
Abstract:
A carbon fiber spun yarn, which is a spun yarn of a carbon fiber that has an average (002)-interlayer spacing of 0.340-0.380 nm as measured by X-ray diffraction method, has a specific gravity of 1.55-1.80 as measured by a density gradient tube method, a hydrogen-to carbon atomic ratio (H/C) as measured by elementary analysis of at most 0.1 and contains 3-30 wt. % of carbon fiber having a fiber length of at least 150 mm, wherein the spun yarn has a weight per 1000 m (tex) of 30-150 g, a number of primary twist of 50-400 turns/m and a tensile strength of at least 0.15 N/tex. The carbon fiber spun yarn may be woven to provide a carbon fiber woven fabric suitable as a gas diffuser (electroconductive substrate) of a solid polymer electrolyte fuel cell.
Abstract:
A molded article having both of sufficient strength and peel resistance, especially a heat insulating material for a high temperature furnace, is provided.A carbon fiber-containing stacked molded article 1 comprises a substrate 10 composed of first carbon fibers piled, and a woven fabric layer 20 located on at least one surface of the substrate 10, and composed of carbon fiber spun yarns 21 including second carbon fibers 22 having an average fiber diameter of 12 μm or less, and third carbon fibers 23 having an average fiber diameter in excess of 12 μm.
Abstract:
A hybrid carbon fiber spun yarn having a core region with carbon fibers as a main component, and a surrounding region with carbon fibers as a main component and covers an outer peripheral surface of the core region. 20% by mass or more of fibers forming the core region are long carbon fibers having a fiber length of 500 mm or longer. 80% by mass or more of fibers forming the surrounding region are short carbon fibers having a fiber length of less than 500 mm. A mass ratio between the long carbon fibers and the short carbon fibers (long carbon fibers:short carbon fibers) is in a range of 20:80 to 80:20.
