Any activity which puts a person at risk of a head injury justifies the use of a carbon fiber helmet, including motorcycle riding, polo and even Skateboarding.
What else can I help you with?
Why isn't carbon fiber used to make footballll helmets even thought it is stronger and lighter than polycarbonate the standard material for footballll helmet shells?
Carbon fiber is a lighter and stronger material to use and would theoretically be an ideal material to use for a football helmet. The problem is that carbon fiber has poor impact resistance. The University and Oregon University worked on a project to make a complete uniform out of carbon fiber. Article below. http://www.carbonfiberguru.com/2010/01/23/oregons-carbon-fiber-footbal-helmets/
What one is lighter in weight carbon fiber or aluminum if put on a car as a spoiler?
Carbon fiber would be lighter than the same structural rigidity in aluminum
Can a carbon fiber case block cell reception ie if I custom made a real carbon fiber case for my phone would I get a worse signal after installing it?
Yes. I have an iPhone 3GS, and when I got a carbon fiber case for it, I lost three bars of signal.
Which car interior trim costs more leather wood aluminum or carbon fiber?
Per square inch and the same thickness, carbon fiber would be number one, burl walnut would come in second,leather, and then aluminum.
How do you cast FRP with stainless steel?
You don't. The temperature to cast any steels would melt any fiber glass fiber. Straight Carbon wouldn't melt but a steel with extra carbon in it may be stronger but it would be be more brittle. You could get the same effect from heat treating. Steel doesn't have extra carbon in it for a reason. Especially stainless steels
Is carbon fiber tear proof?
Depending on the composte glue material used to bind or finish the fiber. Typically the cheaper alternatives are not however it is alot more fire retardant than most other materials used for similar applications. A resin type glue such as epoxy would be scorch proof but that being said if you heat annything up to a certain point it will combust. everything has its tolerances.
Which material would you use if you wanted to make something that was strong and very light?
Carbon fiber would be a good choice for making something that is strong and very light. Carbon fiber is a high-strength material that is commonly used in industries like aerospace and automotive for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.
Which headset would be best for jogging?
Sony has a carbon fiber headset that is lightweight and is ultra comfortable for any sort of exercising.
What is made from carbon fiber composite?
1. Carbon fiber fabric, and 2. a "matrix", or binder, such as epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester.
What is stronger titanium or carbon fiber?
Carbon fiber is lighter than titanium - or less dense, if you prefer to use something a bit more specific. Carbon fiber, even with resin applied to hold it in a given shape (and put on a thin plastic backing, which is often done), doesn't weigh as much as the same volume of titanium.
How do ceramic brake pads do in the winter time?
I believe that they would perform just as well or better than the fiber and carbon pads.
Does carbon fiber conduct electricity?
Carbon Fiber itself has a high resistance, but will still conduct electricity. Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer may not a easily conduct due to the infused polymer (which dose not conduct) that may insulate the carbon strands.
