Interpretation: Carbon fiber cloth can not fold the reason and its impact!
Carbon fiber cloth, as a new type of reinforcement material widely used in recent years, has shown good performance and importance in many fields. However, keen reinforcement partners may notice that carbon fiber cloth is always presented in rolls, which inevitably raises the question: Why can't it be folded? To address this phenomenon, let's explore in detail the reasons why carbon fiber cloth cannot be folded and its impact on construction.
First, let's talk about the structure of carbon fiber cloth. Carbon fiber cloth is woven from carbon fiber strands. During the weaving process, these strands form a specific arrangement to achieve good mechanical properties. Its unique properties give it good strength and stiffness. When carbon fiber cloth is folded, these strands are squeezed and twisted, disrupting their orderly arrangement and causing serious damage to its internal structure. This damage directly weakens the strength and stiffness of the carbon fiber cloth, preventing it from playing its role in reinforcement.
Secondly, the folds created by folding become potential weak points. When bearing loads, stress concentration is likely to occur at these creases, leading to cracks and damage. Even if the carbon fiber cloth appears undamaged on the surface, subtle internal damage has already formed, posing hidden dangers for future use.
In addition, the rolled carbon fiber cloth has its own considerations during storage, transportation, and construction.
The rolled form is convenient for storage and transportation. Carbon fiber cloth is thin and light but has a large area. If it is not rolled up, it will occupy a lot of space and is prone to damage, wrinkles, or dirt during storage and transportation. Rolling it up can save space, facilitate handling and storage, and better protect its integrity.
The rolled form is also convenient for construction workers to unroll the appropriate length for cutting, pasting, and reinforcing according to different reinforcement areas, shapes, and project requirements. If the carbon fiber cloth appears in a folded form, it will create creases, which may prevent the cloth from fully contacting the surface of the structure, increasing the difficulty of construction, affecting the bonding effect, and greatly reducing the reinforcement performance, and may even lead to unpredictable consequences.
To ensure the quality of the project and the safety of the structure, carbon fiber cloth is not allowed to be folded during storage, transportation, and use. During reinforcement construction, it is important to strictly follow the specifications to ensure that carbon fiber cloth can fully exert its advantages.
