LFT-G Polypropylene PP reinforced materials long glass fiber filled high mechanical properites for home appliance parts

PP filling Long glass fiber

PP (polypropylene), as one of the general-purpose plastic materials, has a large production volume and low price, as well as excellent comprehensive performance, good chemical stability, and better molding and processing performance. However, the shortcomings of PP, such as low strength, low service temperature, low hardness, and poor low-temperature impact strength, have seriously limited its application areas. Therefore, engineers by adding glass fiber, calcium carbonate and other reinforcing materials in PP, and when the length of the glass fiber and other lengths exceed the critical size, the mechanical properties are improved by leaps and bounds!

Long Glass Fiber Reinforced PP (LFT-PP) is a very typical thermoplastic composite material, which is generally a column of particles with a length of 12 mm to 25 mm and a diameter of about 3 mm. In these particles, the glass fibers have the same length as the particles, the content of glass fibers can vary from 20% to 70%, and the color of the particles can be matched according to customer requirements.

PP-LGF advantages

1. longer fiber length, significantly improve the mechanical properties of the products.

2. high strength, good impact resistance, especially suitable for furniture, automotive parts.

3. high creep resistance, good dimensional stability, high precision parts molding.

4. excellent fatigue resistance.

5. better stability in high temperature and humid environment.

6. molding process fiber can be in the molding mold relative movement, fiber damage is small.
