Japan develops carbon fiber auto parts
Recently, the famous Japanese chemical fiber company Dongxu Corporation announced that it will invest 30 billion yen to build a carbon fiber production plant in Nagoya, specializing in the production of carbon fiber automotive parts. It is understood that the carbon fiber parts produced by the company will mainly be supplied to Toyota and Nissan. company.
The main advantages of carbon fiber automobile parts are that they can make automobiles lighter, save energy and fuel, and increase durability and strength. The weight of carbon fiber is equivalent to 1/4 of automotive steel. If carbon fiber is used to make major automotive components, a 1,500 kg car can reduce its weight by about 200 kg.
As the weight of the car is reduced, fuel saving is achieved. Some data show that every 100 kilograms of car weight reduction can save 2% to 3% of fuel. In terms of strength, carbon fiber materials are 10 times stronger than steel.
At present, the carbon fiber produced by Tunghsu is mainly used to make aircraft parts. About half of the parts of Boeing’s new 787 passenger aircraft are made of Dongxu carbon fiber materials, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the aircraft and saves 20% of fuel compared with the original model. %about.
