Abstract

In Carbon Fibre (CF) production, generally Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor is subjected to namely three process- polymerisation, carbonization, and heat treatment. Oxidation process is the first and foremost stage of the PAN fabrication, and subsequently it undergoes carbonization. Prior to carbonization, an important step-stabilization process is performed as part of the oxidation process. The stabilization is performed by ranging temperatures between 200°C250°C. The carbon fiber manufactured has the density of 1.75-1.76 g/cc and tensile strength of 3.5- 3.8 Gpa.
