The Royal Dutch DSM Group, active in the world of health, nutrition and materials, has recently released a new hybrid composite: Dyneema® reinforced carbon fiber composite. Compared to traditional carbon fiber composites, Dyneema® fibers The addition of the shock absorber greatly improves the impact resistance of the composite material and reduces the shock resistance.
The improvement of the performance of the new composite material over the traditional single carbon fiber composite material is reflected in the application of sports, automobile racing and other fields. Imagine that the hockey stick feels more comfortable after applying this new material, or it is a race car in a rally. No longer disintegrate after impact - these are just the beginning.
The reason why pure carbon fiber is recognized is: 'It has high strength, sturdiness, light weight and is easy to process. But it does not perform well in terms of shock resistance,' explained Koen Janssen, vice president of innovation and research at DSM Dyneema. Carbon fiber When the material breaks, the debris is sharp and there is a safety hazard that can easily lead to injury. After adding Dyneema® fibers, the performance of the new carbon fiber composite material to absorb impact energy has been doubled, greatly reducing the safety of component disintegration. Hidden Trouble. In addition to the impact resistance mentioned above, Dyneema® reinforced carbon fiber composites are lighter, stronger, and have higher performance in shock absorption than traditional single carbon composites.
The addition of Dyneema® fibers further reduces the application weight of traditional carbon fiber composites from golf clubs to racing bikes to steering wheels, making everything possible.
DSM Dyneema
Dyneema® is a high-end brand under DSM. Its business scope covers the development and production of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers, UD and fabrics. Dyneema® fiber sets are light weight and high strength. In one, under the same quality, its strength is 15 times higher than that of high-quality steel, and 40% stronger than aramid. Its light weight, excellent protection performance and long-lasting characteristics make it in law enforcement and protection, maritime marine, offshore , Medical, Sports & Lifestyle, Fishing, Outdoor Gear, Automotive, Renewable Energy, Personal Protective Equipment etc. We are also increasingly committed to improving and developing more Dyneema® fiber applications and product forms.
