Carbon Fibers, Polymer Nanofibers, Carbon Nanofibers, Advanced Natural Fibers and Cellulose Nanofibers

Published January 2022 | 782 pages, 273 figures, 198 tables | Table of contents

Advanced fiber materials are increasingly used in:

  • composites (including automobile, aerospace industry, and sporting goods)
  • environmental (pollution control and purification for water, air and earth)  
  • energy storage and generation (solar cells, lithium batteries, supercapacitor, etc.)   
  • biomedical applications (regenerative medicine, drug delivery, tumor therapy, etc)  

 

Their use will increase greatly in these and other markets in the next 10-15 years. Carbon fibers, polymer nanofibers, cellulose nanofibers and carbon fibers will play a significant role in technology advancement across these markers. The use of natural fibers for advanced technology applications will also play a major role in the development of renewable solutions in polymer composites, construction and building materials, packaging, and replacement for plastics in consumer products. Natural fibers possess advantages over synthetic fibres including widespread availability, low cost, low density, acceptable modulus-weight ratio, high acoustic damping, low manufacturing energy consumption, low carbon footprint and biodegradability.
