CarboMat is named as one of the awardees in Phase II of Alberta Innovate’s Carbon Fibre Grand Challenge.
Alberta Innovates’ Carbon Fibre Grand Challenge is accelerating the development of pathways for large-scale production of carbon fiber and advanced manufacturing products from Alberta’s bitumen. Carbon fiber’s high strength, stiffness, and corrosion resistance coupled with its light weight make it better than many conventional metals and polymers used in transportation, infrastructure, construction, and consumer products.
