1. Use a maul or splitting wedges to split hardwood. A splitting maul is essentially a thicker, more wedge-shaped axe made for splitting hardwood along the grain, with a blunt sledge-hammer edge on the back of the splitting blade.
Carbon fibre is a material that is made from very thin fibres having carbon atoms. These are bonded together in microscopic crystals, aligned parallel to the long axis of the fibre. It is this crystal alignment that makes carbon fibre so strong. Carbon fibre is used to make composite materials with plastics resins.
Comparing Fiber Properties. Strength: Synthetic fibers are known for being stronger than cotton fibers. However, cotton fiber fabric can be strengthened by replacing some of the cotton with synthetic fiber, which ultimately creates a fabric made from a fiber blend. Cotton blends well with all synthetic staple fibers.
