Product catalog summary
Description: Panex® 30 High-Performance Carbon Yarns are produced through Zoltek's high-temperature batch graphitization process, ensuring high carbon content and purity. These yarns are characterized by surface fibrils that enhance their suitability for high-performance applications, particularly in carbon/carbon and refractory composites. They have a density of 1.75 g/cc and a minimum carbon content of 99%.
Recommended Use: The yarns are ideal for high-temperature packings and gaskets, pre-forms for carbon/carbon and carbon/ceramic composites, and reinforcement in polymer-based composites.
Applications: The product codes range from PX30YS0205 to PX30YS1005, with varying deniers, plies, twists, and yields. The denier ranges from 1,700 to 8,500 g/9000 m, with corresponding yields from 2,854 to 527 yds/lb.
Typical Packaging: The yarns are packaged on conical spools with a maximum diameter of 4.75 inches and a height of 6 inches. Spool weights vary between 1.5 to 2.0 pounds, depending on the yard denier.
Certification: Panex® 30 Yarns are manufactured according to Zoltek’s standards, with a Certificate of Conformance provided with each shipment. The product is certified under ISO 9001 and AS9100 by Bureau Veritas.
Safety: Users must obtain and understand the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using the product.

Technical Datasheet Panex® 30 Carbon Yarns High-Performance Carbon Yarns Description Panex® 30 High-Performacne Carbon Yarns are derived from Zoltek's high temperature batch graphitization process; the same process used to manufacture all of Zoltek's high purity PANEX® 30 products. In addition to their high carbon content, the many surface fibrils protruding in various directions from the stretch broken and spun Panex® 30 High-Performacne Carbon Yarns make them ideally suited for high performance applications including carbon/carbon and other refractory composites. Panex® 30 HighPerformacne Carbon Yarns have a density of 1.75 g/cc and a minimum carbon content of 99%. Recommended Use High performance applications including carbon/carbon and other refractory composites. Applications » High temperature packings and gaskets » Pre-forms for high temperature carbon/carbon and carbon/ceramic composites » Specialty applications for reinforcement in polymer-based composites Product Code Denier (g/9000 m) Plies Twist Turns Per Inch Yield PX30YS0205 1,700 2 S 2.5 5,755 m/kg 2,854 yds/lb PX30YS0305 2,500 3 S 3.5 3,545 m/kg 1,758 yds/lb PX30YS0405 3,500 4 S 2.5 2,590 m/kg 1,285 yds/lb PX30YS0505 4,400 5 S 2.2 2,050 m/kg 1,016 yds/lb PX30YS0605 5,000 6 S 2.2 1,780 m/kg 884 yds/lb PX30YS0705 6,000 7 S 2.2 1,510 m/kg 750 yds/lb PX30YS1005 8,500 10 S 2 1,060 m/kg 527 yds/lb Zoltek Corporation | 3101 McKelvey Rd. | St. Louis, MO 63044 P: 314-291-5110 | F: 314-291-8536 | E: [email protected] | W: www.zoltek.com
