Carbon Fiber Composites for Lightweight of Laptop And Computer

Carbon fiber composites for lightweight of laptop and computer

Lightweight technology

In recent years, the composite materials made by lightweight technology have been applied in a large number of fields such as aerospace, rail transportation, marine vehicles, bridge construction, power tools, sports equipment, and 3C electronic products such as, phone, and consumer electronics.

Carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composites with high strength, high modulus, low specific gravity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, corrosion resistance and many other advantages . They are the preferred choice for the light weighting of all kinds of high-grade electronic and technology products . CFRP by using high-quality raw materials of carbon fibers and good resin matrix has such good properties as high-strength, corrosion resistance, vibration resistance, impact resistance and so on.

Computers, phone, consumer electronics and other "3C" electronic products towards portable, thin and light development. At present, the most common electronic product shell and structure materials are metal materials, engineering plastics, composite materials. But from the trend of lightweight and cost, process considerations, carbon fiber composite materials are increasingly widely used.

Carbon Fiber Composites for Laptop Casing Applications

Laptop is a small, portable personal computer, mainly divided into commercial and consumer type, with the progress of technology volume is getting smaller and lighter, while the function is more and more powerful. The shell of the laptop computer is both the most direct way to protect the body, but also affects its cooling effect, weight, aesthetics, an important factor, the current main engineering plastics, aluminum (magnesium) alloy materials, carbon fiber composite materials, and so on.

Carbon fiber composite material is a comprehensive performance is very good material, its high strength, high modulus, low specific gravity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, corrosion resistance and many other advantages, become the solution to the current equipment lightweight, miniaturization of the problem of the best choice, so that it in the automotive, electronics, home appliances, communications, instrumentation and aerospace and other fields of application is increasing. It has both aluminum and magnesium alloy strong characteristics, and ABS engineering plastics of high plasticity, its appearance is similar to plastic, but the strength and thermal conductivity is better than ordinary ABS plastic, and carbon fiber is a conductive material, can play a similar metal shielding role, so it is the ideal choice for Laptop materials.
