What is the lifespan of a carbon fiber frame?
1 Answers
Carbon fiber frames have a lifespan of 3-5 years. Here is an introduction to related content: 1. Carbon fiber: Carbon fiber is a special fiber composed of carbon elements, featuring high-temperature resistance, friction resistance, conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. It appears fibrous and soft, and can be processed into various fabrics. Due to the preferred orientation of its graphite microcrystalline structure along the fiber axis, it exhibits high strength and modulus along the fiber axis direction. 2. Chemical properties: Carbon fiber has a small density, resulting in high specific strength and specific modulus. The main use of carbon fiber is as a reinforcing material combined with resins, metals, ceramics, and carbon to manufacture advanced composite materials. Carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resin composites have the highest specific strength and specific modulus among existing engineering materials.
