Abstract:The main goals of this research program at UTSI were: 1) to produce low cost carbon fibers and 2) to develop specific carbonbased
material technologies to meet current and future high performance fiber-reinforced composite needs of FTA and other
organizations. UTSI has been carrying out the relevant research programs since it received the carbon fiber spinning technologies
and accessories as a donation from ConocoPhillips. Under this DoT sponsored program, significant progress has been made in
continued development and refinement of the low-cost carbon fiber production and composite application technologies. The task
at hand is a major multidisciplinary effort and will need to be continued to reach successful completion and for continuous
improvements. The webpage of the UTSI carbon fiber program is on line. The content of this site is regularly updated, with the
latest major progresses and accomplishments at (http://www.utsi.edu/research/carbonfiber/index.htm).
