As a leader in new composite materials, carbon fiber cloth material has very good physical and chemical properties, so it has been very well applied in many industries, especially in many lightweight industries. Traditional metal products are called “black gold” in composite materials. Regarding the price of this material, many people don’t understand where the cost of carbon fiber is high and why it is so much higher. This article follows the editor to see Look.
For a product, the reason for the high price is nothing more than the following aspects: 1. Rare things are expensive, and the technical difficulty is high. If you can do what others can’t, the price will definitely be high. 2. The cost of production is high. Making a product requires more manpower and material resources, and the corresponding price will definitely be higher. The carbon fiber satisfies this situation very well.
The research and development of carbon fiber cloth technology is more difficult. The foreign technology is more cutting-edge, and my country’s carbon fiber technology is blocked, and then the entire core technology needs to be researched and developed. If it is purchased from abroad, the price will be higher, and the domestic carbon fiber research and development will be more expensive. The specific efficiency is high, and the preparation process of carbon fiber precursor is more complicated, which involves the process of pre-oxidation, petrochemical, sizing, etc., which is a high energy-consuming process, which will also make the production of carbon fiber tow difficult It will be relatively high, which will also lead to a relatively high price of the produced joint fiber material, so this is an important reason for the relatively high cost of carbon fiber.
In addition, the production cost of carbon fiber cloth products is high, because the entire production process of carbon fiber materials requires a lot of manpower and material resources. If you compare customized carbon fiber products, the ball will involve mold opening, and large-scale star-making requires the joint efforts of several people. Carry out the process of handling, sorting, cutting of raw materials, laying up and curing, moving out and demoulding. If it is a slightly larger special-shaped product, it will take one day to make the blank in the early stage, and then add the follow-up Machining, spraying and other processes often take three to five days to complete the production of a product, which also leads to an important reason why the price of carbon fiber products is inevitably expensive.
There is also the curing equipment for carbon fiber cloth products. The purchase of one or molding equipment requires the capital investment of big stars. After the production of carbon fiber products, there must be a profit point on the sale, including the depreciation of the equipment. In fact, this is also the reason for the high price of carbon fiber products.
After reading the above content, I believe that everyone can understand the reasons for the high cost of carbon fiber cloth. With the continuous development of the carbon fiber industry, I believe that in addition to the slowly developed materials with higher performance, for common applications The price of carbon fiber products will also drop slowly, which can be seen in our daily life. At this stage, it is still necessary to find manufacturers with production experience in the production and processing of carbon fiber products.
