CF (Carbon Fiber):
Overview:
Carbon fibers serve to increase the durability of the product printed from the filament in terms of stiffness and tensile strength. The main strengths of carbon fiber lie in its excellent strength-to-volume ratio and very high strength-to-weight ratio; giving excellent rigidity and durability to materials while being much lighter compared to more traditional durable materials such as wood, steel, or aluminum with the bonus of not expanding due to temperature. It also exhibits very good resistance against corrosion and chemical degradation.
Application:
Applications for carbon fiber include any object that requires a high strength while also demanding the lightest weight possible. This could include objects such as bicycle frames, car parts, sporting equipment, and functional prototypes.
