Addressing Diameter Non-uniformity in the Melt Spinning of Asphaltenes-Derived Carbon Fibres
Download

Spring 2023

Phan, Calvin

Asphaltenes offer a cheap alternative to the predominant precursor currently used in the manufacture of carbon fibres. Melt spinning is typically employed for transforming asphaltenes into a fibrous form but faces two challenges: inconsistent or poor spinnability and a large diameter variation in...
