Mesophase pitch
-based carbon fibres (MPP-based carbon fibres) are
carbon fibres
obtained from
mesogenic pitch
after it has been transformed into
mesophase pitch
(MPP) at least during the process of spinning, and after the spun
mesophase pitch
fibres have been made non-fusible (stabilized) and carbonized.
