Milled Carbon Fiber Market

The milled carbon fiber market is projected to grow from USD 182 million in 2024 to USD 302 million by 2029, at a CAGR of 10.8% during the forecast period.

Milled carbon fiber, a short and powdered form of carbon fiber typically measuring 80-100 micrometers in length, is utilized as a reinforcing material in composite materials. It offers exceptional properties such as a high strength-to-weight ratio, high tensile and flexural strength, dimensional stability, and excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. Compatible with both thermoset and thermoplastic resin systems, milled carbon fiber enhances the mechanical properties, dimensional stability, and conductivity of the composite materials it is incorporated into. It is produced by mechanically crushing carbon fiber using techniques such as hammer mills, roll mills, orient mills, or impeller mills, with the sizing amount typically ranging from 0.05 to 0.30 weight%. Milled carbon fiber finds its primary applications in industries including automotive and transportation, aerospace and defense, wind energy, sports and leisure goods, and construction and infrastructure.
