Wet-laid nonwovens are rapidly penetrating the high-end application market, driven by their superior performance.
2026-06-16 16:42
Wet-laid nonwoven fabric is a type of nonwoven material produced using a process adapted from papermaking, in which fibrous raw materials are dispersed in water to form a suspended slurry, then dewatered to create a web that is subsequently bonded. Characterized by high production speeds and uniform structure, it is widely used in fields such as medical applications, filtration, and battery separators.
1. Carbon Fiber Thin Mat
A carbon fiber thin mat is a lightweight, multifunctional nonwoven material produced by dispersing chopped carbon fibers in water to form a sheet, then bonding them with an adhesive; it exhibits excellent mechanical properties and resin compatibility.
Carbon Fiber Thin Mat Manufacturing Process
High-quality chopped PAN (polyacrylonitrile)-based carbon fiber is used as the raw material.
The fibers are randomly and uniformly dispersed in water, naturally forming a multi-layered, microporous network structure with high porosity.
A specialized adhesive is applied to secure the structure through multi-point bonding, imparting the necessary overall mechanical strength and surface toughness.
The adhesive formulation and content can be flexibly adjusted to ensure perfect compatibility and enhanced bonding with various resin systems.
Carbon Fiber Thin Mat Key Features: Ultra-low basis weight (minimum 4 g/m²); ultra-light and ultra-thin; excellent dispersibility.
Carbon Fiber Thin Mat Core Material Properties：
Rapid impregnation speed
Good covering effect
Excellent electrical properties
Temperature and corrosion resistance
Improved interlaminar flow

2.Nickel-plated carbon fiber thin mat
It inherits the advantages of carbon fiber veils, such as rapid impregnation, excellent coverage, and resistance to high temperatures and corrosion.
The nickel coating bonds tightly to the carbon fiber substrate, ensuring high mechanical strength and preventing delamination during processing or use.
It effectively improves interfacial compatibility between the carbon fiber and the nickel matrix or resin, thereby reducing interfacial defects.
It offers exceptional electrical conductivity, effectively eliminating static electricity buildup to protect precision components, while also providing superior electromagnetic shielding performance that meets the rigorous anti-interference requirements of the electronics and information sectors.
