He fiber kūikawā i hana ʻia me ke kalapona.Loaʻa iā ia nā hiʻohiʻona o ke kūpaʻa wela kiʻekiʻe, ke kūpaʻa friction, conductivity uila, thermal conductivity a me ka corrosion resistance, a ʻo kona ʻano he fibrous, palupalu a hiki ke hana ʻia i nā lole like ʻole.Ma muli o ka makemake o ka graphite microcrystalline structure ma ka fiber axis, loaʻa iā ia ka ikaika kiʻekiʻe a me ka modulus ma ka axis fiber.He haʻahaʻa ka mānoanoa o ka fiber carbon, no laila ua kiʻekiʻe kona ikaika kikoʻī a me ka modulus kikoʻī.ʻO ke kumu nui o ka fiber carbon ka hoʻopili ʻana me ka resin, metala, ceramic a me carbon e like me ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i nā mea e hana ai i nā mea hoʻohui holomua.ʻO ka ikaika kikoʻī a me ka modulus kikoʻī o ka carbon fiber reinforced epoxy resin composites ka mea kiʻekiʻe loa ma waena o nā mea hana ʻenehana.
