  • Patent number: 5292408
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improvement in the process of producing pitch-based carbon fibers comprising the steps of spinning a spinnable pitch, treating the resulting pitch fibers for rendering infusible, and carbonizing the same, the improvement comprises the step of removing the surface layer from the carbon fibers obtained in said process.

  • Patent number: 4859381
    Abstract: A process for preparing pitch-type carbon fibers by melt-spinning a pitch-type material, rendering the material infusible and carbonizing it, characterized by the steps of passing molten pitch, before reaching the final nozzle, through a capillary portion of circular, otherwise shaped, or slit type to thereby apply a shearing stress at least 1/2 as high as the level of shearing stress to be exerted during the passage through the final nozzle orifice, maintaining the molten pitch in a state substantially free of shearing stress and then passing the pitch through the nozzle orifice for spinning.

  • Patent number: 4859382
    Abstract: A process for preparing a carbon fiber having an elliptical cross section, characterized by the steps of extruding spinnable pitch from a nozzle with an orifice rectangular or otherwise shaped in cross section and having a width/height ratio of more than 1, fully relaxing the molecules orientated by the nozzle on discharge from the nozzle, effecting continuous winding-up to obtain a pitch fiber elliptical in cross section, rendering the fiber infusible and carbonizing the same.
