The Wuhan Institute of Technology laboratory has successfully produced tens of thousands of meters of large fiber bundles of carbon fibers, and China has achieved mass production of T1000 and above high-performance carbon fibers. This material has extremely high strength and has long been blocked by foreign technology. Zhongfu Shenying is the world's first enterprise to achieve mass production of 100 tons of T1200 grade carbon fiber, and China has completed decades of industrialization process abroad in a short period of time. The breakthrough in high-performance carbon fiber is not only a significant achievement in the field of new materials, but will also reshape the trillion dollar global supply chain.Editor/Gong Ziwei
