The LIBRE project focuses on developing sustainable carbon fiber production using lignin-rich materials instead of petroleum-based precursors. This innovative approach aims to reduce costs and energy consumption while ensuring high-quality carbon fibers for various industrial applications.
The use of carbon fiber (CF) based composites is of growing importance in many industrial applications with the current global market estimated at $28Bn [ref 9].
However, the current high cost, limited production capability in Europe and the use of petroleum-based polyacrylonitrile (PAN) as the precursor fiber (PF) from which the CF is ultimately derived, requires the development of innovative routes to industrial production.
To achieve this, novel processes are needed which can utilise sustaina…
