Older applications written with the Carbon API have a potential issue when being ported to the current Intel Macs.

Carbon fibers derived from Polyacrylonitrile ( PAN ) are turbostratic, whereas carbon fibers derived from mesophase pitch are graphitic after heat treatment at temperatures exceeding 2200 C. Turbostratic carbon fibers tend to have high tensile strength, whereas heat-treated mesophase-pitch-derived carbon fibers have high Young's modulus ( i. e., high stiffness or resistance to extension under load ) and high thermal conductivity.

Carbon forks have become very common on racing bicycles of all frame materials.

This view is disputed and relates to a Carbon date from a standing stone setting which intersects with a later timber post circle, the theory being that the stone in question could have been moved and re-set in its original position at a later date.

Carbon shafts have the advantage that they do not bend or warp, but they can often be too light weight to shoot from some bows and are expensive.

Carbon fiber bows have become very popular, and some of the better carbon fiber bows are now comparable to fine pernambuco sticks.
