Thermal stabilization of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibres is an essential step in the carbon fibre
manufacturing process. The formation of radial heterogeneity in polyacrylonitrile precursor …

During the carbonization process of raw polymer precursors, graphitic structures can evolve.
The presence of these graphitic structures affects mechanical properties of the carbonized …

The aim of this work is to review a possible correlation of composition, thermal processing,
and recent alternative stabilization technologies to the mechanical properties. The chemical …

The low cost and high performance via a simple way of fabrication are considerable
challenges for Si-based anode in the application of lithium-ion batteries. In this study, we …

The radial microstructure development of polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers is traced
during continuous carbonization from 400 to 1400° C. Based on the changes in the …

The manufacture of carbon fibre is an energy intensive proprietary process which has
resulted in limited detailed information on the relationship between process parameters …

Thermal stabilization is a very time-consuming process from PAN fibers to carbon fibers and
seriously affects the structure and properties of the final carbon fibers. In this study, the …

The modification before the stabilization process could tune the exothermic behavior and the
structural evolution of PAN fibers during stabilization. In this study, we demonstrate that a …

Here we report on how residence time influences the evolution of the structure and
properties through each stage of the carbon fibre manufacturing process. The chemical …

In this study we fabricated a hollow carbon nanofiber (CNF) via a facile dual nozzle
electrospinning process and directly used as low-cost and environmental friendly carbon …
