1980s carbon fiber sunglasses 

Carbon fiber is a material made from extremely thin strands of carbon atoms bonded together in a crystal structure. These fibers are woven into sheets or fabrics and usually combined with a plastic resin to create a carbon fiber composite.

Key Properties

• Very strong: Stronger than steel by weight.
• Lightweight: Much lighter than steel and even lighter than aluminum.
• Stiff: Resists bending and deformation.
• Corrosion-resistant: Doesn’t rust like metals.
• Heat-resistant: Performs well at high temperatures (depending on the resin used).
