What is the difference between aramid cloth and carbon fiber cloth?

Aramid cloth and carbon fiber cloth are the fiber weaving materials that are superior in function. Once they are widely used, what is the difference between aramid cloth and carbon fiber cloth?

We first look at the mechanical properties, the tensile strength of aramid cloth is 2060MPa, carbon fiber cloth is higher than it, more than 3000MPa, can bear a huge load for a long time. However, carbon fiber cloth has a large brittleness and is not as strong as aramid.

In terms of electrical properties: carbon fiber cloth and aramid fiber cloth have a big difference, that is, carbon fiber cloth is conductive and aramid cloth is not conductive. This makes carbon fiber cloth specifically for electric power, but this feature also limits its use. From the price point of view: imported high-quality carbon fiber cloth and imported aramid cloth prices are similar, domestic carbon fiber cloth prices are cheap, but the quality needs to be improved.

In addition, the difference in performance leads to different applications. The application range of carbon fiber cloth and aramid fiber cloth is different:

Carbon fiber cloth is mainly used for: bending and shearing reinforcement of concrete beams, bending reinforcement of plates, seismic strengthening of columns, etc.; strengthening and strengthening of factories, buildings, school buildings, hospitals and other industrial and civil buildings; roads and bridges, water conservancy, nuclear power Reinforce and strengthen infrastructure such as energy.

Aramid fiber cloth is mainly used for: shearing, bending, ductility and seismic strengthening of concrete structures such as concrete beams, slabs and columns; subway tunnels, stations, electric railway tunnels, computer rooms and other buildings requiring insulation; Structural reinforcement and repair of infrastructure such as transportation, water conservancy, nuclear power and energy. The impact and aerodynamic fatigue properties of aramid fiber cloth, as well as its non-conductivity, are its characteristics.

Now that you have a deep understanding of the difference between aramid cloth and carbon fiber cloth, Zhejiang Xuantai New Material Co., Ltd. is specialized in the research and development of high-performance fibers such as aramid fiber and aramid yarn. Production and sales of comprehensive enterprises, we sincerely welcome the guidance and communication of friends in the industry, Xuan Tai is willing to work with you to create brilliant tomorrow!
