One article to understand the application of carbon fiber in the field of rail transit

Relevant data shows that by 2025, China's high-speed rail mileage will exceed 38,000 kilometers, and there are more than 2,500 high-speed rail trains in service. The energy saving, environmental protection, comfort and convenience of trains have become the future development direction of high-speed trains. Because of its excellent performance, carbon fiber has attracted more and more attention and adoption by rail vehicle development companies, and its development potential is huge. Image source: Internet public information. Compared with traditional lightweight materials, carbon fiber composite materials have low density, high strength, and high modulus. They are suitable for use as lightweight and environmentally friendly materials for rail transit.
