Carbon fiber composites are prohibitively expensive for a wide array of applications that would greatly benefit from their superior specific strength and specific stiffness. Replacing the market-dominant carbon fiber precursor material, polyacrylonitrile, with a low-cost alternative would significantly reduce the cost of carbon fiber production. Commodity polymers may provide such an alternative thanks to their abundance and ease of production into fibers. Furthermore, this review presents state-of-the-art carbon fiber production from polyacrylonitrile, an overview of melt-spinnable alternative precursors broadly, and an in-depth review of the latest advances in the synthesis of carbon fibers from low-cost, commodity thermoplastics such as polyethylene, polyamide, polystyrene, polyester, and poly(vinyl chloride).
