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.
