Carbon fiber cloth consists of bulk, chopped fibers, continuous strands, or woven cloth forms of carbon or graphite. The fabric surface is black, glossy and lint-free. Carbon fiber fabrics are weaved by carbon fiber filaments. Generally, fabrics can be divided into uni-directional and bi-directional according to the weave type. Plain and twill weave are the regular bi-directional weave type. Beside, fabrics can be divided into many grades according to the brands and quality of the filaments.
Carbon fiber and carbon fiber cloth are used in composites for aerospace, automotive, and marine applications. Carbon fiber and carbon fiber cloth are also now being used in consumer goods such as computers, photographic equipment such as tripods, fishing rods and frames for rackets, and even the bows used for stringed musical instruments. Other non-polymer matrix materials such as carbon-fiber-reinforced graphite are used in high-temperature applications, including the nose cone and leading wing edges of the space shuttle
