What is long carbon fiber PLA? While biobased polylactic acid (PLA) thermoplastics are relatively eco-friendly and easy to recycle, composites such as carbon fibre are much stronger. Long carbon fiber reinforced PLA is an outstanding material that is strong, lightweight, has excellent layer bonding and low warpage. It has excellent layer adhesion and low warpage. Long carbon fiber PLA is stronger than other 3D-printed materials. Long carbon fiber filaments are not as strong as other 3D materials, but tougher. The increased rigidity of carbon fiber means increased structural support but reduced overall flexibility. It is slightly more brittle than regular PLA. When printed, the material is a dark glossy color that shimmers slightly under direct light. What is long carbon fiber? Long carbon fiber reinforced composites offer siginificant weight savings and provide optimum strength and stiffness properties in reinforced thermoplastics. The excellent mechanical properties of long carbon fiber reinforced composites make it an ideal replacement for metals. characteristic The fracture strain is moderate (8-10%), so the silk is not brittle, but strong toughness Very high melt strength and viscosity Good dimensional accuracy and stability Easy to handle on many platforms High attractive matte black surface Excellent impact resistance and lightness Application of long carbon fiber PLA materials Long carbon fiber PLA is an ideal material for frame, support, shell, propeller, chemical instrument and so on.

General characteristics of PP row materials 1. Colorless, tasteless, non-toxic 2. Due to the crystallization of PP, the natural milky translucent, transparency is better than PE 3. The specific gravity is as low as 0.9, which is smaller than water and is almost one of the lightest plastics 4. Good toughness, especially repeated bending resistance 5. Better heat resistance than PE 6. Good hydrolysis resistance, high temperature steam disinfection 7. Chemical resistance, especially acid resistance is very good, can be due to the storage of concentrated sulfuric acid containers 8. Outdoor use is easy to be aging by light and ultraviolet rays Long Carbon Fiber Reinforced PP Compounds Carbon fiber reinforced composite (CFRP) is composed of carbon fiber as a reinforcement material and resin as a matrix material, and early carbon fiber composite materials are mainly used in the military field. With the improvement of material properties, molding process and price cost, carbon fiber composite materials are more and more used in general industry and sports and leisure fields. Polypropylene is a low cost, excellent performance, a wide range of uses of polymer materials, through carbon fiber reinforcement, can improve the strength of polypropylene materials, thermal deformation temperature and dimensional stability, expand the application of polypropylene materials, widely used in electronic appliances, automobiles, construction and other fields. Especially in the automotive field, with the development of new energy vehicles and the trend of lightweight vehicles, carbon fiber reinforced materials are more and more widely used in the automotive field. Carbon fiber reinforced polypropylene material features: High mechanical properties In line with the design trend of new energy vehicles The lower density meets the needs of lightweight vehicles The modified PP reinforced by carbon fiber has a series of advantages, such as light weight, high modulus, high specific strength, low coefficient of thermal expansion, high temperature resistance, heat shock resistance, corrosion resistance, good vibration absorption, etc., and can be applied to auto parts such as automobile sub-instrument assembly. (PP-LCF) Why are these pellets so long? LFT long fiber reinforced thermoplastic engineering materials,compared to ordinary short fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials (fiber length is less than 1-2 mm), the LFT process produces thermoplastic engineering material's fibers in lengths of 5-25 mm. Due to different production processes, the length and distribution of carbon fibers retained in the resin are different. As a result, the fibers inside the long-fiber composite are longer and more regular than those inside the short-fiber composite. Long-fiber reinforced composites show excellent mechanical properties compared to short fibers and are more suitable for applications requiring high strength.  The impact performance of long fiber composites is 1-3 times higher than that of short fibers, tensile strength is more than 50% higher, and mechanical properties are 50-80% higher. Compared with traditional short fiber materials, the main features of LFT-G thermoplastic long glass fiber and long carbon fiber are mechanical properties, high impact and tensile modulus, which are more suitable for some large products or structural load-bearing parts.  It can do Injection molding, extrusion of sheets, profile pipes, etc. Q & A What is the Maximum Operating Temperature of Thermoplastic? The maximum operating temperature of a thermoplastic usually refers to the temperature at which the mechanical properties of the plastic begin to degrade. Every thermoplastic has its own maximum continuous operating temperature. This property can be further impacted by additives meant to improve thermal stability. Xiamen LFT can provide you with data sheets tested by our own laboratory. Does long glass fiber and long carbon fiber injection have special requirements for injection molding machines and molds? There are certainly requirements. especially from the product design structure, as well as the injection molding machine screw nozzle and mold structure injection molding process must consider the requirements of long fiber. Are long fiber reinforced composites suitable for other processes besides injection molding? In addition to injection molding, LFT long glass fiber and long carbon fiber can also be used for extrusion of sheets, profiles, pipes and molding, among which injection molding is the most common.

Long carbon fiber Carbon fiber has many excellent properties, high axial strength and modulus, low density, high specific performance, no creep, super high temperature resistance in non-oxidizing environment, good fatigue resistance, specific heat and electrical conductivity between non-metal and metal, small coefficient of thermal expansion and anisotropy, good corrosion resistance, good X-ray transmission. Good electrical and thermal conductivity, good electromagnetic shielding, etc. Compared with traditional glass fiber, carbon fiber has more than 3 times of Young's modulus; it is about 2 times of Young's modulus compared with Kevlar fiber, which is insoluble and swollen in organic solvents, acids and alkalis, and has outstanding corrosion resistance. But is there a way to reduce the price of carbon fiber? That is to mix it with relatively cheap nylon material to form a composite material with good performance and meet the requirements. In that case, there is no doubt that carbon fiber nylon will definitely have a place in the composite material. Nylon itself is an engineering plastic with excellent performance, but moisture absorption, poor dimensional stability of products. Strength and hardness are also far from metal. In order to overcome these shortcomings, as early as before the 70s. People have used carbon fiber or other varieties of fibers for reinforcement to improve its performance. Carbon fiber reinforced nylon materials have developed rapidly in recent years, because nylon and carbon fiber are excellent performance in the field of engineering plastics materials, its compound material synthesis reflects the superiority of the two, such as strength and rigidity than unreinforced nylon is much higher, high temperature creep is small, thermal stability has improved significantly, good dimensional accuracy, wear resistance. Excellent damping, compared with glass fiber reinforced has better performance. Therefore, carbon fiber reinforced nylon (CF / PA) composites have developed rapidly in recent years. And for 3D printing using SLS technology is the most suitable technical means to achieve carbon fiber reinforced nylon.
