Colouring on carbon fiber
With the rapid shift to electric vehicles (EVs) to address the issue of global warming, further weight reduction of vehicle bodies is in demand for longer travel distances with less energy consumption.
Carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP) are increasingly being used in aircraft and automobiles as one of the weight reduction materials, however, dyeing of carbon fiber is difficult, and its unique texture and weave patterns are not utilized in designs.
Assigning colour design to carbon fiber
AURORADE® can produce wonderful metallic Colours on carbon fiber, which is difficult to dye, without the use of dyes.
With a wide range of Colour variations, the weave pattern of carbon fiber can also be used as part of the design.
By molding the material as CFRP, it contributes to weight reduction of vehicle bodies as well as improvement of automobile parts design.
