Carbon Fiber Underbody Braces Make Corvette Driving Experience Even More Exhilarating
The Glasforms business unit formulated a carbon-fiber-reinforced composite material for the C7 Corvette Z06 and non-Z06 underbody braces.
The carbon fiber-reinforced composite part was 17% lighter than the stock aluminum part, and the composite held up well in GM's extensive vibration, shake and road test regimen.

Yes, achieving this target will support Avient's achievement of Abs 3.
In 2022, Avient is instituting an internal cost of carbon
to better prioritize low-carbon investments.

Carbon black is a form of paracrystalline carbon that has a high surface-area-to-volume ratio.
IARC’s listing of carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen is based on laboratory rat studies only;
studies on carbon black production workers have not shown a link between carbon black exposure and
cancer.
Consumer
exposure to carbon black is negligible.

CARBON FIBER FIBERS PROCESSES PRODUCTS
Molecular Structure
Chemical Name
Carbon, Graphite.
The precursor undergoes several processes including
carbonization and oxidation which produces high tensile & modulus carbon fiber
filaments.
Carbon fiber can also be produced from other carbon-rich precursors
such as Pitch & Rayon.

All are semi-crystalline materials that contain an abundance of carbon and oxygen.
This is due to the low carbon footprint of the monomers, which is similar to that of traditional polyolefins.
However, it surpasses ABS, COPET and PC alloys.
