The advantages of carbon fiber in the application of shipbuilding

Date:2024-01-30Source:Views:

In the field of ship engineering, progress is being made in the application of carbon fiber in small boats, yachts, large vessels, and other shipbuilding fields. Carbon fiber is an ideal material for use in the field of shipbuilding, as it can reduce ship vibration and maintain a good wireless communication environment between ships.

In addition, the most important reason for using carbon fiber is that this material can improve the speed and fuel economy of ships by reducing weight. For example, by completely replacing glass fiber composite (GFRP) with carbon fiber reinforced composite (CFRP), the weight of the ship can be reduced by 30%.

The application of carbon fiber and its composite materials in yachts can further reduce weight and improve ship stability by using CFRP in the superstructure and deck installation; Carbon fiber transmission shafts can also reduce weight and vibration; Carbon fiber also has potential wide applications in propeller blades.
