As can be seen in photos of the vehicle, the upcoming Model 3 Performance seems to be equipped with a carbon fiber dash. The new upgraded Tesla Model 3 Performance was sighted in San Francisco by Tesla Motors Club (TMC) member Watts_Up , who observed that the vehicle in question was fitted with 19″ tires.

Continental Structural Plastics (CSP) has fine-tuned its carbon fiber RTM (resin transfer molding) (CF-RTM) process to the point that a premium automaker will be using the technology for closures on future vehicle platforms. We have been targeting a 3-minute cycle time using 100 percent recycled carbon fiber.

Toray Industries concluded an agreement with Lilium GmbH to supply carbon fiber composite materials for the Lilium Jet. The Lilium Jet is a five-seater, emissions-free aircraft that can take off and land vertically and is designed to provide high-speed regional connections of up to 300km in under 60 minutes.

million from the US Department of Energy (DOE) to develop and validate technology that will reduce the cost of manufacturing high-performance carbon fiber by 25% to make composite natural gas or hydrogen fuel tanks to power cars and trucks. The Institute for Advanced Composites Manufacturing Innovation (IACMI) will receive $2.7

Researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have shown that making carbon fiber composites with bio-based epoxies and an anhydride hardener makes the material fully recyclable by introducing linkages that are more easily degraded. Synthesizing carbon fiber involves temperatures of more than 1,000 °C.
