AI Thread Summary
Research on carbon fibers' chemical properties highlights their composition as primarily carbon, which is generally inert. When combined with plastics or epoxies, these materials enhance strength and resistance to deformation, making them valuable in automotive applications. The chemical and environmental properties of carbon fibers are significantly influenced by the accompanying materials, particularly regarding their interactions with solvents, sunlight, and temperature. For comprehensive data, utilizing databases and research papers focused on carbon fibers is recommended. Accessing resources like Google can provide a wealth of information on this topic.

TL;DR Summary: data about different types of carbon fibers' chemical properties

hi! is there any databases or informative research papers I can use for my essay? I am focusing on researching carbon fibers' chemical properties. any source regarding carbon fibers' impacts on cars or chemical properties will be useful. thanks.

Carbon fibers are just that, fibers of Carbon. Chemical properties would be the same as Carbon.

Carbon fibers are often mixed with various plastics or epoxies for added strength and resistance to deformation.

As Carbon itself is fairly inert, the plastics or epoxies would be the major concern for chemical and environmental properties (solvents, sunlight, temperature, etc.).

Cheers,
Tom
 
@GoldRemove9500 Welcome to PF.

There is a really good program that can help you here.
It's called Google.

Thread 'Minimum mass of a block'

Thread 'Minimum mass of a block'

Here we know that if block B is going to move up or just be at the verge of moving up ##Mg \sin \theta ## will act downwards and maximum static friction will act downwards ## \mu Mg \cos \theta ## Now what im confused by is how will we know " how quickly" block B reaches its maximum static friction value without any numbers, the suggested solution says that when block A is at its maximum extension, then block B will start to move up but with a certain set of values couldn't block A reach...

Thread 'Electric field due to charges between 2 parallel infinite planes'

TL;DR Summary: Find Electric field due to charges between 2 parallel infinite planes using Gauss law at any point Here's the diagram. We have a uniform p (rho) density of charges between 2 infinite planes in the cartesian coordinates system. I used a cube of thickness a that spans from z=-a/2 to z=a/2 as a Gaussian surface, each side of the cube has area A. I know that the field depends only on z since there is translational invariance in x and y directions because the planes are...

Thread 'Calculation of Tensile Forces in Piston-Type Water-Lifting Devices at Elevated Locations'

Figure 1 Overall Structure Diagram Figure 2: Top view of the piston when it is cylindrical A circular opening is created at a height of 5 meters above the water surface. Inside this opening is a sleeve-type piston with a cross-sectional area of 1 square meter. The piston is pulled to the right at a constant speed. The pulling force is（Figure 2）： F = ρshg = 1000 × 1 × 5 × 10 = 50,000 N. Figure 3: Modifying the structure to incorporate a fixed internal piston When I modify the piston...
