Tell The Difference Real & False Carbon Fiber

Tell The Difference Real & False Carbon Fiber

We often buy carbon fiber products online, so can we really tell whether it is real or fake carbon fiber? I hope these ways can help you.

1. What is fake carbon fiber?

  Everyone knows that real carbon fiber products are very expensive, so a relatively cheap "carbon fiber" pattern product has been derived - water transfer carbon fiber.
  Water transfer is a product of ABS transfer pattern. As the name suggests, it just transfers a carbon fiber pattern on the surface.
  How to transfer? It is to spray a layer of oil film on the water surface, a carbon fiber oil film, and then press the product into the water or lift it into the water. The entire oil film will adhere to the product, and a water transfer carbon fiber product will be formed.

3. Several ways to distinguish

a. Fire roasted: Real carbon fiber can be baked with an open flame, but fake carbon fiber is nothing more than high-quality plastic, which will show signs of melting after being baked with an open flame for a while. Real carbon fiber will turn red when baked with fire, but it will not burn, and will return to its original state after a short period of burning.

b. Sound: Real carbon fiber sounds metallic, heavy, or solid, while fake carbon fiber may sound like a plastic.
c. Pattern: Real carbon fiber has visible weave connections deep within the resin, giving it a 3D feel. When light hits real carbon fiber, it creates a holographic effect. The light will hit individual fibers and create a rainbow-like appearance through the resin. While fake carbon fiber may just be a flat pattern on the surface.
d. Weight: Real carbon fiber is much lighter than plastic.

In general, real carbon fiber is relatively light, hard, and resistant to high temperatures. It has obvious knitting patterns when viewed with the naked eye.
