Investigation of the degradation of pitch-based carbon fibers properties upon insufficient or excess thermal treatment

Abstract To overcome the disadvantages of discontinuous conventional batch extruders, a continuous screw extruder is introduced to manufacture pitch-based carbon fibers. For a carbon fiber preparation process, an oxidation time of 8 h was determined to be optimal for obtaining desirable mechanical p...
