Carbon fibers are composed of carbon atoms bonded together to form a long chain. These fibers are extremely stiff, strong, and light and are used to create excellent building materials. The major properties of carbon fibers are self-lubricity, heat resistance, tensile strength, and high elastic modulus. Carbon fiber are utilized to form woven fabric, which makes it easier to work with and can give additional structural strength depending on the application. The different weaves are used for carbon fiber fabric. The most common weaves are plain, twill, and harness satin. The higher utilization rate of carbon fibers in industries such as ballistics, building and construction, automotive, and aircraft has broadened the scope of carbon fiber 3D woven fabrics. Thus, the rising utilization of carbon fiber 3D woven fabrics in industries is driving the 3D woven fabrics market.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on 3D Woven Fabrics Market
The unprecedented rise in the number of COVID-19 cases across the globe and the subsequent shutdown of numerous manufacturing facilities hampered the 3D woven fabrics market growth. The automotive sector was severely affected due to lockdown, laborer shortages, increased material costs, and delays in the supply chain that reduced the demand for 3D woven fabrics in the global market. The initial lockdown in various countries negatively affected the production of various materials and structural components, such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, advanced composites, and textile composites utilized in construction & building, transportation, aerospace and aviation sectors. However, the 3D woven fabrics market began reviving in late 2021 due to significant measures taken by governments of various countries, e.g., well-coordinated vaccination drives. The resumption of business activities in the automotive, construction, and aircraft sectors is creating the demand for 3D woven fabrics.
