      Sorry, I don’t know. This isn’t my specialism at all. I wonder if one of the scientists in “I’m a scientist” knows….

      Carbon fibre’s do have covalent bonds but I have no idea how to use this to make them thicker. Sorry. I’m not sure any of us do materials engineering but I know this is taught in our 1st year mechanical engineering course on manufacturing and materials.
