Carbon fiber composite materials promote lightweight development in the automotive industry
With the rapid development of society, global climate change problems are gradually intensifying, energy consumption continues to grow, and environmental protection and energy conservation have become particularly important. As our daily mode of travel, cars not only provide us with convenience, but also bring a series of problems. In response to the dual-carbon policy, the development of automobiles in the direction of cleaner and more energy-saving vehicles has become unstoppable. Today, automobile lightweight technology has emerged under the background of dual carbon. The application of carbon fiber composite materials in automobile manufacturing has significantly reduced the weight of the vehicle body, by approximately 60%, and at the same time significantly improved the endurance of electric vehicles, by at least 25%. However, due to the high cost and complex process of carbon fiber composite materials, the price of acrylonitrile has recently fluctuated in the range of 7500-10500, which is more expensive than its alternatives. Therefore, it is crucial to develop new technologies and new processes for the preparation of carbon fiber composite materials.
The excellent performance exhibited by carbon fiber composite materials is a key factor driving market growth; improving green and low-carbon development mechanisms, coupled with awareness of the positive impact of green and light vehicles, can directly promote market growth. Additionally, fuel-efficient cars are environmentally friendly, have high mileage, can run on alternative fuels, and use advanced fuel technology. Hybrid vehicles, battery-powered vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles, and gas-powered electric vehicles are some of the fuel-efficient vehicles favored by consumers. These lightweight vehicles make extensive use of composite materials, which directly increases the demand for the market during the forecast period.
Carbon fiber materials have played a key role in shaping the future of the automotive industry, providing innovative directions for improving fuel efficiency, improving performance and enabling mass production capabilities. This transformative material combines unparalleled strength and lightness and holds great promise for future development.
