Disadvantages: poor heat resistance and acid resistance, low impact strength in dry state and low temperature, high water absorption affects the dimensional stability and electrical properties of products. Polyamide 66 filling long carbon fiber High-performance fibers are chemical fibers with high load-bearing capacity and high durability because they have a special physical or chemical structure embodied with some excellent characteristics that traditional fibers do not have, such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, flame retardancy and other properties. Carbon fiber is an inorganic polymer material with carbon content higher than 90% obtained from organic fibers through carbonization and graphitization. Advantages: light weight, high strength, high modulus, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, etc. Disadvantages: high cost, relatively difficult to infiltrate, poor transparency, etc. Carbon fiber composite materials are very useful structural materials, which are not only light, high temperature resistant, but also have high tensile strength and elastic modulus, and are indispensable materials for the manufacture of spacecraft, rockets, missiles, high-speed aircraft and large passenger aircraft. In transportation, chemical industry, metallurgy, construction and other industrial sectors, as well as sports equipment and other aspects have a wide range of applications. The density of PA66/CF composites tends to increase slightly as the content of CF increases. This is due to the fact that the density of CF is larger compared to that of PA66. The fracture surface of PA66 is smoother, while the fracture surface of PA66/CF sample is extremely rough and CF is pulled out, which indicates that the CF in the system plays a good role in bearing the load when the composite sample is subjected to external force, and this fracture is a ductile fracture, therefore, PA66/CF composite is a ductile material. With the increase of CF content, the tensile strength of PA66/CF composites increased significantly. The flexural strength and flexural modulus of PA66/CF composites are increased substantially with the increase of CF content.

PPS material In recent years, the application of special engineering plastics has gradually extended from the previous military and aerospace fields to more and more civil fields, such as automotive, equipment manufacturing, high-end consumer goods, etc.. Among them, polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polyether ether ketone (PEEK) are two special engineering plastics that have developed relatively quickly and have a wide range of applications. PEEK is superior to PPS in terms of strength, toughness, and maximum operating temperature. In terms of high-temperature resistance, PEEK is about 50°C higher than PPS. But on the other hand, the relatively obvious cost advantages and better processing properties of PPS make it more widely used. PPS is a crystalline, highly rigid white powder polymer, high heat resistance (long-term use of 200 ℃ -220 ℃, short-term can withstand high temperatures of 260 ℃), is a mechanical strength, rigidity, flame retardant, chemical resistance, electrical properties, dimensional stability are excellent resin. It has excellent wear resistance, creep resistance, flame retardancy and self-extinguishing properties. It maintains good electrical properties at high temperature and high humidity. Good flowability, easy to mold, almost no shrinkage and concave spot when molding. Good affinity with various inorganic fillers. It has been developed to shorten the difference between standard thermoplastic materials (e.g. PA, POM, PET ......) and advanced engineering plastics. PPS has the following distinct performance advantages: (1) Intrinsically Flame Retardant Unlike PC and PA, PPS pure resin and its glass fiber/mineral powder filled composites without any added flame retardants 可以轻松达到V-0@0.8mm甚至更薄厚度的V-0阻燃级别. Although PC and PA have a cheaper price and better mechanical strength (especially impact strength) than PPS, the cost of PC and PA composites with the addition of halogen-free flame retardant formulations (V-0@0.8mm级别) is significantly higher, in many cases even higher than PPS materials with the same mechanical strength. (2) Ultra-high flowability For the semi-crystalline PPS, its very high fluidity can allow glass fiber filling easily more than 50 %, while in the process of high-temperature melt blending extrusion, PPS compared to PC lower viscosity can make the glass fiber to withstand a lower degree of shear and extrusion, so that the final injection molded products have a longer retention length, to further enhance the effect of modulus. (3) Ultra-low water absorption This advantage is mainly for PA. In terms of fluidity, highly filled PA and PPS are comparable; and for mechanical properties, the same amount of filling PA composites will be more advantageous. But in addition to the halogen-free flame retardant limitations, another factor limiting the application of PA is its high water absorption: compared to high-temperature nylon PA6T 0.6%-1% water absorption, PPS 0.03% water absorption rate is almost negligible. The result is that PPS products due to water absorption and deformation of the product defect rate is much lower than the same conditions of PA products. (4) the unique metallic texture and higher surface hardness PPS injection molded parts will be dropped on the table, a very crisp sound unique to PPS crash. Through the special mold and reasonable mold temperature with the PPS injection molded parts in the human touch will also sound similar to the impact of metal, the surface will be as smooth as a mirror, with a metal-like luster. PPS-LCF compounds Length: About 12mm, or customized Color: Original color, or customized Fiber specification: 20%-60% Grade: General grade Long carbon fiber reinforced composites offer significant 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. Combined with the design and manufacturing advantages of injection molded thermoplastics, long carbon fiber composites simplify the re-imagining of compoents and equipment with demanding performance requirements. Its widespread use in aerospace and other advanced industrials makes it a "high-tech" perception of consumers. Datasheet for reference Application Factory Q & A 1.

The performance of specific carbon fiber filaments is fixed, such as Toray's carbon fiber filaments, T300, T300J, T400, T700, etc. There are a series of parameters that can be traced. However, there is no uniform standard to measure the carbon fiber composite products. Firstly, the different models of raw materials selected will lead to different performance of the products, and then the different selection of substrate and product design will lead to different performance of the products. In addition to some common carbon fiber tube, carbon fiber plate and other conventional parts, most of th...

Long carbon fiber (LCF) Carbon fiber was first used in aviation, military and other fields, and later was cited in the production of racing car parts. In recent years, it began to come into the consumer market, and is also one of the materials that international manufacturers are keen on. Carbon fiber composite materials are characterized by very light, rigid, and can withstand the same pressure as steel, the cost is higher. However, the material is more durable and has a high recycling value, so it can save costs to a certain extent. Carbon fiber composites include carbon fiber powders, short fibers, long fibers, and long fiber reinforced composites. Long carbon fiber composites have better mechanical properties than short carbon fiber composites, but there are certain requirements for the injection molding machine and mold of the product. Carbon fiber has excellent mechanical properties and chemical stability, lower density than aluminum, higher strength than steel, is the highest specific strength and highest specific modulus among the high-performance fibers that have been produced in large quantities, and has the characteristics of low density, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, friction resistance, fatigue resistance, high electrical and thermal conductivity, low coefficient of thermal and wet expansion, etc. It is an important strategic material for the development of national defense and national economy. The characteristics of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and low coefficient of expansion make it an alternative material to metal materials in harsh environments; the electrical and thermal conductivity properties expand its application in the field of communications and electronics; as the highest specific strength (strength to density) and highest specific stiffness (modulus to density) among the high-performance fibers currently in mass production, carbon fiber is an important material for aerospace, wind power blades, new energy vehicles, transportation, sports and leisure, etc, Carbon fiber is an ideal material for aerospace, wind power blades, new energy vehicles, transportation, sports and leisure, and other fields with light weight needs.

What are the types of thermoplastic carbon fiber composites? Carbon fiber thermoplastic composites are composites with carbon fiber as reinforcing material and thermoplastic resin as matrix. From the reinforcement of carbon fiber, it can be divided into long-cut carbon fiber (LCF)-reinforced thermoplastic composites, short-cut carbon fiber (SCF)-reinforced thermoplastic composites and continuous carbon fiber (CCF)-reinforced thermoplastic composites. Long-cut carbon fiber and short-cut carbon fiber mainly refers to the application length of carbon fiber materials, there is no strict fixed distinction between the two, generally between a few millimeters to a few centimeters, the more common specifications are 6mm, 12mm, 20mm, 30mm, 50mm. Carbon fiber thermoplastic composites can also be classified according to the thermoplastic resin, there are many common thermoplastic resins, such as PE, PP, PVC, etc., but the thermoplastic resin composites reinforced with carbon fibers are mostly used in aerospace, precision equipment, and other demanding working environments, so the carbon fiber thermoplastic composites are more commonly used in the form of polyetheretherketone (PEEK), PPS, polyimide ( Therefore, carbon fiber thermoplastic composites more often use polyether ether ketone (PEEK), PPS, polyimide (PI), polyetherimide (PAI) and other high-end thermoplastic resins as the matrix, to achieve the optimization of the material performance through the way of "strong alliance". 2. How do thermoplastic carbon fiber composites achieve low cost and environmental protection? Thermoplastic carbon fiber composites are used to make parts for high-end machinery, and they have excellent machinability, vacuum forming, stamping mold plasticity and bending processability, etc. Moreover, as long as the material reaches a certain temperature again, it can be remolded, which is recyclable and environmentally friendly in terms of the characteristics of the material itself. For example, Teijin Japan has been able to design a recycling process in the process according to the special needs, and the punched thermoplastic carbon fiber composite material trimmings are shredded, injection molded, and made into recycled materials, which can be used to make small products or injection molded nuts and studs on the carbon fiber prototype parts. This method can reduce the loss of raw materials to a greater extent, improve the use of thermoplastic carbon fiber composite materials, reduce the overall cost, so as to achieve the purpose of environmental protection. Production process of thermoplastic carbon fiber products In addition, thermoplastic carbon fiber composites, compared with thermoset carbon fiber composites, can shorten the molding cycle time due to its special process characteristics, which can further cut down the production cost in terms of production efficiency. 3. Are thermoplastic carbon fiber composites only suitable for injection molding? From the process point of view, injection molding and compression molding compared to a higher degree of automation, the raw material does not contact with the outside world, so the product appearance quality is guaranteed, there will be no black spots, impurities, uneven color and other issues, the mechanical properties of the product, dimensional stability and precision is relatively higher. At present, Toray, Japan, these carbon fiber giants in the application of carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite materials, the main use of injection molding method, and this method is suitable for the production of complex shaped parts and mass production.

PPS-LCF In carbon fiber composites, carbon fiber reinforced PPS can be said to be a very promising new material, its mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, self-flame retardant and other aspects of the performance is good, so it is often used as a matrix material for various types of high-performance composite materials. The mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide are also affected by the carbon fiber content, under a certain threshold, the larger the carbon fiber content, the stronger the ability to bear external loads. Application Through the reinforcing intervention of carbon fibers, the toughness and strength of polyphenylene sulfide PPS can be substantially increased and improved, becoming one of the most commonly used composites in the aerospace field. Compared with metal, carbon fiber reinforced PPS has the advantages of low cost and easy processing, and the cost can be reduced by 20%-50%. Used in landing gear, wings, doors, fuel tank covers, J-type nose cones, cabin trim and other parts of the aircraft, it not only helps to increase the impact resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of these parts, but also improves the load efficiency of the aircraft and reduces fuel consumption by reducing the quality. The most representative application example is the carbon fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide composite material for the leading edge of the wing of Airbus A340/A380 aircraft. Datasheet Carbon fiber reinforced PPS production products, with a fast molding, easier to mass production; carbon fiber reinforced PPS with environmental standards, but also able to be used twice, in the production of the entire product as well as the processing of solvents and additives do not need to be introduced, so it can reduce or even a certain degree of avoiding environmental pollution, but also thermoplastic products, unlike thermosetting composite materials can not be reused after the molding of the product, under certain temperature conditions, it has the possibility of recycling, regeneration and reuse. Moreover, unlike thermoset composite products that cannot be reused after molding, thermoplastic products have the possibility of recycling and reuse under certain temperature conditions. In addition, relative to thermoset products, thermoplastic composite products molding speed to be faster, shorter manufacturing cycle, which is conducive to reducing the cost of products.

Throughout the plastics industry, PEEK is widely recognized as a leading high performance polymer (HPP). However, the preferred material in the automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, and medical device industries has long been metal, and PEEK polymers are rapidly changing that mindset. What is the PEEK material PEEK or Polyetheretherketone belongs to the class of polymers known as "aromatic polyketones" (more accurately Polyaryletherketone or PAEK). Research and development of PEEK began in the 1960s, but it wasn't until 1978 that Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) patented PEEK, and Victrex PEEK polymer was first commercialized in 1981. "Aromatic" usually implies a distinctive or sweet flavor, which may seem like an odd term, but scientists use it to describe certain molecules that contain or consist of a cyclic structure (such as the aryl unit above). Small molecules of this type, such as toluene and naphthalene, have distinctive odors and hence the name. However, PEEK itself, like most thermoplastics, is odorless under normal conditions. Chemically, PEEK is primarily a linear semi-crystalline polymer. P comes from the Greek word "poly" meaning "many", so many EEKs form PEEK. aryl and ketone groups provide stiffness by being somewhat rigid, which means good mechanical properties and a high melting point. The ether group provides a degree of flexibility, while the aryl and ketone groups are chemically inert and thus chemically resistant. The regular structure of the repeating units means that the PEEK molecule can be partially crystallized and the crystallinity provides properties such as wear resistance, creep resistance, fatigue resistance and chemical resistance. The resulting polymer is widely recognized as one of the best performing thermoplastics in the world. Compared to metals, PEEK-like materials are lightweight, easy to mold, corrosion-resistant, and have a fairly high specific strength (strength per weight). Datasheet for reference When high performance is required, PEEK as the polymer of choice offers more than just two or three properties, it offers a wide range of excellent properties including: - High heat resistance Testing has shown that LFT-G's PEEK polymer has a continuous use temperature of 260°C (500°F). This allows for a wide range of applications in hot corrosive environments such as the process industry, oil and gas industry, and the engines and transmissions of countless vehicles.PEEK resists friction and wear in dynamic applications such as thrust washers and seals. - Chemically Inert PEEK resists damage caused by chemically corrosive working environments such as downhole environments in the oil and gas industry, and gears in mechanical and automotive applications. It is resistant to jet fuels, hydraulic fluids, de-icers and pesticides used in the aerospace industry for a wide range of pressures, temperatures and time frames. - Strong mechanical properties PEEK exhibits excellent strength and stiffness over a wide range of temperatures, and the specific strength of PEEK-like carbon fiber composites is many times higher than that of metals and alloys. "Creep" is the permanent deformation of a material under constant stress over a period of time. "Fatigue" is the brittle destruction of a material under repeated cyclic loading. Because of its semi-crystalline structure, PEEK has high creep and fatigue resistance and is more durable than many other polymers and metals over a long service life. - Does not ignite or burn easily PEEK has excellent flame resistance, with an ignition temperature of nearly 600°C. Even when ignited at very high temperatures, it does not burn continuously and emits little smoke. This is one of the reasons why PEEK is widely used in commercial aircraft. - Reprocessable and recyclable PEEK molecules are so stable that they can be melted and reprocessed time and time again with minimal impact on their properties. This helps to improve the environmental footprint and ensures more efficient reuse of waste materials generated during the manufacturing process. - And there's more! PEEK is also non-hygroscopic, so its properties are not altered in wet environments; it is resistant to gamma and electron beam radiation and is transparent under X-ray exposure, making it attractive for medical device applications.PEEK is also electrically stable and is typically used as an electrical insulator, but can be modified to become a conductor or static dissipative material. As a thermoplastic PEEK, it can be injection molded, compression molded and extruded using conventional thermoplastic processing equipment. It is very versatile and its use is becoming more and more common to improve component performance, durability, reduce weight and lower overall system costs over its lifetime. There is no doubt that it is replacing metals and alloys. In many industries and critical environments, material specialists, part designers and buyers must choose between PEEK and traditional metals a...

Thermoplastic prepreg tape composites What are thermoplastic prepreg tape composites? Composites have three elements 1: Matrix resin, e.g. PP, PA 2: Fiber, such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, and 3: fiber morphology, is one-dimensional, or fabric form, different weaving state has different properties; Prepreg is a combination of resin matrix and reinforcement made by impregnating continuous fibers or fabrics with a resin matrix under strictly controlled conditions, and is an intermediate material in the manufacture of composites. Certain properties of prepregs are carried directly into the composite material and are the basis of the composite material. The properties of the composite material depend largely on the properties of the prepreg. PP-LCF composites Long fibre reinforced thermoplastics, LFT for short, uses PP as the most common base resin, by PA, but also PBT, PPS, SAN and other resins, just for different resins need to use different fibers to achieve better results. In the automotive industry, LFT-PP (Long Fiberglass PP) is used in car hoods, instrument panel frames, battery trays, seat frames, car front-end modules, bumpers, luggage racks, spare tire trays, fenders, fan blades, engine chassis, roof racks, etc.. LCF V& SCF In contrast to LFT, SFT (Short fibre reinforced thermoplastics), the biggest difference in their appearance is the difference in the length of the particles and fibers: SFT Particle length: 1-3 mm Length of reinforcing fibers: 0.2 to 0.6 mm LFT Particle length: 6 to 25 mm Reinforcing fiber length: 6 to 25 mm Applications The earliest and most mature application of LFT-PP is in automotive parts. Due to its excellent performance and cost-effectiveness, LFT-PP is increasingly being used in other fields such as instruments, chemical equipment, power tools, gardening tools and so on. e.g. Replacement of staple fiber PA6-GF30 with LFT PP-GF50 No water absorption, higher dimensional stability No change in mechanical properties due to moisture absorption Related materials                        PA6-LCF                                    PPA-LCF                                    TPU-LCF Frequently asked questions Q. Are there any special process requirements of long carbon fiber for the injection molding products? A. We must consider the requirements of long carbon fiber for the injection molding machine screw nozzle, mold structure and injection molding process. Long carbon fiber is a relatively high cost material, and need to evaluate the cost performance problem in the selection process. Q. What are the advantages of long carbon fiber materials? A.  The thermoplastic LFT long carbon fiber material has high rigidity, good impact strength, low warpage, low shrinkage, electrical conductively and electrostatic properties, and its mechanical properties are better than glass fiber series. Long carbon fiber has the characteristics of lighter and more convenient processing to replace metal products. Q. The cost of long fiber products is higher. Does it has a high recycling value? A. The thermoplastic LFT long fiber material can be recycled and reused very well.

Polyamide 6 material The chemical and physical properties of PA6 are very similar to those of PA66, and the different molecular structures and properties of PA6 and PA66 also lead to different functions.PA6 has a lower melting point and a wide range of process temperatures, so it is better than PA66 in terms of impact and solubility resistance, but it is also more hygroscopic. Because many of the quality characteristics of plastic parts to be affected by hygroscopicity, molding assembly shrinkage is mainly affected by the material's crystallinity and hygroscopicity, so the use of PA6 design products should be fully considered when this point. Nylon 6 reinforced  can reduce the shrinkage of PA6, an effective solution to the moisture-absorbing properties of nylon after the production of parts caused by the problem of high crystallinity, good fluidity performance, making the product more stable. Datasheet Nylon products should be used with attention to the precision error caused by thermal expansion and water absorption, poor acid resistance, poor rotational light resistance; in a long period of high temperature bias environment will be thermally oxidized with the oxygen in the air, the beginning of the color browning, and then rupture. Therefore it is not suitable for outdoor use. However, carbon fiber reinforced modified nylon can be carried out outdoor use, because it improves the poor creep resistance . The use of products with fiber reinforced PA6 not only improves poor creep resistance, but also improves rigidity, wear resistance and strength. *Tips:PA6 filling carbon fiber if not well compatible, will inevitably bring such as floating fiber, poor mechanical properties and other problems, but our products are very good compatibility, there is no such problem. Advantages 01 Strength and durability, excellent combination of rigidity and heat resistance 02 Optimized component design, perfect surface appearance, able to be applied to complex structural molding 03 Good processability, excellent fluidity and thermal stability make the material processing conditions relaxed, so that the injection molded parts miniaturization. 04 Very high thermal stability 05 Constant electrical properties over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies, ensuring 100% safety in the use of installations and equipment.

Polyamide 12 material Polyamide (PA), commonly known as nylon, is a diverse group of polymers that are used as engineering plastics to replace metals to meet downstream industrial requirements for lightweight, low-cost products. The materials of the polyamide series exhibit resistance to high temperatures and electrical resistance. Due to their crystalline structure, they also show excellent chemical resistance. They have very good mechanical and barrier properties. In addition, these materials are very flame retardant. Polyamides were the first truly commercial synthetic fibers. When reinforced with carbon fibers (staple or long), their stiffness can compete with that of metals, which is why polyamides are often considered in metal replacement projects. Polyamides are widely used in the automotive, transportation, electronics, electrical, and consumer goods markets. Main properties of PA12: Excellent chemical resistance Low temperature impact resistance Aging resistance High temperature resistance Even if they do not excel in temperature resistance (HDT, peak temperature...) they show stable performance over time even if they do not excel in terms of temperature resistance (HDT, peak temperature...) Their excellent durability allows them to be used in a wide range of conditions (temperature, pressure, chemical ......) PA12 is particularly suitable for situations where long-term stability is required. Application More application fields you can contact us for technical advice.

PLA plastic Polylactic acid (PLA) fiber is made from starch raw materials such as corn and wheat, converted into lactic acid by fermentation, and then polymerized to obtain PLA, which is made by solution spinning or melt spinning. It is a fiber that completes the natural cycle and has biodegradability. The fiber does not use petroleum and other chemical materials at all, and its waste can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water under the action of microorganisms in the soil and seawater, so it will not pollute the earth's environment. Since the initial raw material of this fiber is starch, its regeneration cycle is short, about one to two years, and the carbon dioxide it produces can be reduced in the atmosphere by plant photosynthesis. Long carbon fiber reinofrced PLA Carbon Fiber (CF) is an inorganic fiber containing more than 90% carbon. It is made by cracking carbonization of organic fibers under high temperature environment to form carbon main chain mechanism. As a new generation of reinforcing fibers, carbon fiber has excellent mechanical and chemical properties, including: 1) Light weight. Carbon fiber density and magnesium and beryllium is basically equivalent to less than 1/4 of steel, the use of carbon fiber composites as a structural component material can make the structure quality reduction of 30% -40%. 2) High strength and high modulus. The specific strength of carbon fiber is 5 times higher than that of steel and 4 times higher than that of aluminum alloy; the specific modulus is 1.3-12.3 times higher than that of other structural materials. 3) Small coefficient of expansion. Most of the carbon fiber at room temperature coefficient of thermal expansion is negative, the coefficient of thermal expansion under high temperature conditions is small, it is not easy due to high working temperature and expansion and deformation. 4) Good chemical corrosion resistance. In the acid, alkali environment are very stable performance, can be made into various types of chemical corrosion products. 5）Strong fatigue resistance. Its composite materials by stress fatigue millions of cycle test, strength retention rate is still 60%, while 40% of steel, aluminum for 30%, glass fiber reinforced plastic is only 20% -25%. Carbon fiber composites are the re-enforcement of carbon fiber. Although carbon fiber can be used alone and play a specific function, however, it is ultimately a brittle material, only with the combination of matrix materials to form carbon fiber composites, in order to better play the mechanical properties, to carry more load. Long carbon fiber & Short carbon fiber Long carbon fiber (LGF): 6-25mm/ High performance, high cost Short carbon fiber (SCF): less than 6mm/ Low performance, low cost In the composite material made of fibers is sheared or pulled, the fibers are pulled out from the matrix, such a pulling process is conducive to the absorption of energy provided by the loading, the longer the fibers are within a certain length, the greater the absorption of energy, and the more significant its strength. And in the same volume amount, due to the longer the single fiber, the fewer the number of fiber roots, the less stress concentration generated at the fiber end, the more difficult the destruction of the material. From the results of the feedback of practical applications, the various properties of long carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites are more excellent than those of short fibers. ●Will the use of Xiamen LFT-G materials increase the cost? a. The unit cost of the material is slightly higher than aluminum alloy, but the cost/time of secondary metal processing can be saved, which is relatively advantageous overall. b. The unit cost of the material is slightly higher than that of a homogeneous staple fiber reinforced composite material, but LFRT has high dimensional stability, is not easily deformed, and can be assembled after demolding, which saves cooling/pressure retention time for molding and cost/time for fixing fixtures.
