Abstract

Composites are a group of materials that mainly constitutes metals, ceramics, and/or polymers in order to improve the composite properties. Usually, some stiffer, stronger materials are used as reinforcing agents in the composite matrix to enhance the mechanical and thermal behavior of the composite materials. Carbon fibers are the major load-bearing components in most of the composites.

Carbon fiber composites have always been regarded as the materials that can challenge steel in high structural applications. Polymers reinforced with carbon fiber are advanced composite materials, and they are utilized in a broad range of applications, such as aerospace and automotive industries and in sports equipment. Epoxy is the most commonly used polymer matrix with carbon fibers. In addition, polyester, polysulfone, polyimide, and thermoplastic resins are also used. When the carbon fibers are bound with a plastic polymer resin, it creates a composite material that is extremely strong, with high modulus, durable, low cost, and lightweight, and can be found in many forms, including fabrics, tubes, and tows. Due to the superior nature of carbon fibers, their applications have been expanded to the construction industry, which uses carbon fibers to reinforce concrete.

Carbon fiber composites can have very great thermal conductivities, due to the incorporation of highly graphitic fibers. Therefore, composites reinforced with carbon fiber are also preferred in electronic systems, as a way of enhancing the removal of unwanted heat away from the electronic machines. This chapter focuses on carbon fiber reinforced composites and its various applications.
