INCOFIBER nickel coated carbon fibers
are produced in Clydach, Wales using a chemical vapor deposition process (CVD) to coat any unsized carbon fiber. In this process the carbon fiber is pulled through the CVD coater, and nickel is deposited by thermal decomposition of a nickel bearing gas. The gas penetrates the fiber easily to achieve a uniform nickel coating throughout the filament bundles. The uniqueness of the CVD process is that it is not limited to conductive fibers. Non-conductive fibers have been successfully coated and are under evaluation. The conductivity of each tow is monitored throughout the coating process and is used in a feed back loop to control the level of nickel. This process is enabled by a major refining process, based on CVD, developed by Inco Limited, the world's leading nickel company. The advanced process technology has been developed with continuous investment in research and development. Our professional staff is prepared to provide you with ongoing support to ensure your projects are successful. We look forward to an opportunity to help you with your application in INCOFIBER nickel coated carbon fibers. Please call if you have any additional questions, quotation, sample requests or wish to arrange a meeting to discuss further your application.
