Procotex CF-120mm

Procotex CF-120mm is a mixture of all origins carbon and graphite ex-PAN fibers, obtained from spools of pure carbon fibers, cut for the widest range of short fibers applications. Its original sizing, which can vary, is generally compatible with the widest range of thermoplastic and thermosetting matrixes (polymers and elastomers), also : rubbers, papers, concretes, paints etc.. Its compatibility needs to be checked on each new batch and for each new application.

Safety & Health

Health and Safety
  • Health and Safety : Carbon fibers are not dangerous for health. However, as short fibers and dusts, they cause irritation on skin, eyes, tract ; the sizing sometimes causes allergies. People will have to wear dust protections as face masks, spectacles, light overalls, gloves. Carbon fibers are electricity conducting materials.
