Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP), or carbon fiber composites, are made by combining carbon fiber with a resin, such as vinyl ester or epoxy, to create a composite material that has higher performance properties than the individual materials alone. What is Carbon Fiber? Carbon fiber, sometimes referred to as graphite fiber, is formed by bonding carbon atoms together to form a long chain.
