Hi guys, Im looking for sheets of Carbon fiber and sheets of the yellow carbon/kevlar. I checked on ebay, and got this http://cgi.ebay.com/Yellow-Car...wItem
But I dont know if its genuine, and it seems pretty expensive for the 6" x 6".
Can anyone recommend anything?

thanks, but you know the difference between Carbon and Carbon/Kevlar?

 

carbon is just well carbon fiber, and carbon/kevlar is a hybid. The black is the carbon and the color is the kevlar

 

Carbon Fiber is made by super heating an acrylic fiber yielding high strength to weight and high stiffness to weight properties. When engineered properly, carbon fiber composites can achieve the strength and stiffness of metals at a significant weight saving.

Kevlar is made by dissolving a polymer in a solvent and extruding the fiber and then spinning. While Kevlar has properties similar to Carbon Fiber, it lacks compressive strength. The combination of 50% Carbon Fiber and 50% Kevlar results in a laminate with flexural strength about 3 times that of Kevlar alone.

 

there you go! I didn't want to get technical so you handled it for me lol

 

so carbon kevlar doesnt weigh less than standard CF?

 

everything is sold in ounces. My dual twill kevlar is 7.0 ounces and the carbon I use is 5.7 ounces. You can get it in any variation really

 

cool thanks i was wondering that too

 

no prob

 

and that ends our Science & Technology discussion for today kiddies...same bat time same bat channel...
