 Carbon Fibers
Continuous Filament

Toho Tenax America, Inc. Continuous carbon fiber Continuous carbon fiber grades, supplied as filament tow, are ideally suited for use in processes such as prepregging, filament winding, pultrusion, and weaving. The fiber is surface treated to improve the fiber-to-resin interfacial bond strength. Additionally, fiber sizing is applied to protect the fiber and to improve handling and wet-out. The sizing is fully compatible with epoxy and vinylester resin systems. Application areas for these fibers include products for the aerospace, defense, recreation and general industrial markets.
