SAMURAI Carbon fabric SY-24K, 72 g/m² (LW, IMS)

Технические характеристики

USA: width 39.37", weight 2.1 oz/yd²

Fiber: Tenax® IMS 60 24k, 24k-yarn spread to 24 mm with 6 g EP binder

Technical data:
Tensile strength: 5600 MPa
Tensile modulus: 290 GPa
Elongation at break: 1.9 %
Density: 1.8 g/cm³
Fibre diameter: 5 µm

IM-Carbon fibers (Intermediate modulus) are specifically suited for lightweight applications. In comparison with standard Carbon fibres as type HTS oder T 300, the IM-fiber provides ca. 20 % increased tensile modulus and ca. 30 % increased tensile strength at a higher elongation at break.

"Lightweight, strong, black!"

This fabric is made by Sakai Ovex / Japan for R&G. It increases the performance and reduces the weight of your composites as well as enhancing the surface finish making the composites aesthetically appealing.

Unlike other tissues, Samurai™ Carbon fabric is delivered without binder application, so that it can deform relatively well. The fabric is very delicate, the fibers can be moved easily if mistreated.

Should it be slip-resistant, it can be fixed by applying a spray adhesive like Aerofix 2. As an alternative it could be wet-out on a polyethylene film prior to cutting, to improve its handling.

This fabric is characterized by:

• Reduced weight by 20% or more
• Increased mechanical performance
• Superior surface finish
• Unique aesthetic look
