Top 100 Key Players companies in Carbon fibers
by Highest Patent Value in the Japan in 2019

The Carbon fibers top 100 is Discovery PatSnap’ annual ranking of the top 100 Highest Patent Value Carbon fibers Key Players in the Japan. Discovery has identified the top key players, startups & unicorns, fast-growings, news entrants in 2019, ranking from differnt perspectives, including patent filing intensity, academic research capability, news media heat. The company list is generated from various data types.
Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are fibers about 5–10 micrometres in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. Carbon fibers have several advantages including high stiffness, high tensile strength, low weight, high chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion. These properties have made carbon fiber very popular in aerospace, civil engineering, military, and motorsports, along with other competition sports. However, they are relatively expensive when compared with similar fibers, such as glass fibers or plastic fibers.
