Carbon fibres type HM

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001639",
  "term": "Carbon fibres type HM",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "High modulus carbon fibers, characterized by exceptionally high stiffness and a relatively lower tensile strength compared to high-strength types. These fibers are typically produced from pitch or highly graphitized polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursors through high-temperature heat treatment. They are used in applications where rigidity is paramount, such as satellite structures and precision instruments.",
