What is Long Glass Fiber (LGF)? Long glass fiber reinforced plastics (LFT) are engineered materials in which long glass fibers and additives are incorporated into a base thermoplastic. This significantly improves mechanical strength, heat resistance, dimensional stability, and the overall performance of the material. Why Reinforce with Long Glass Fiber? High heat resistance: LFT significantly increases the thermal performance, especially for nylon-based plastics. Reduced shrinkage & higher rigidity: Fiber reinforcement restricts polymer chain movement, improving dimensional stability and stiffness. Improved impact resistance: Reinforced plastics are less prone to stress cracking and have better toughness. High strength: Long glass fibers increase tensile, compressive, and bending strength. Flame retardancy: Most LFT materials are self-extinguishing due to additives and fiber content. Why Choose Long Glass Fiber over Short Glass Fiber? Longer fiber length significantly enhances mechanical properties. High specific stiffness and strength with excellent impact resistance, ideal for automotive applications. Superior creep resistance and dimensional stability for precision parts. Excellent fatigue resistance for long-life components. Improved stability under hot and humid environments. Minimal fiber damage during molding due to relative fiber movement in the mold.

Polyamide, which is also known by the trade name, Nylon, has excellent heat resistant properties, especially when combined with additives and filler materials. In addition to this, Nylon is very resistant to abrasion. Xiamen LFT offers a wide range of temperature-resistant nylons with many different filler materials. About PA66-LGF compounds Nylon 6,6, also written as nylon 6-6, nylon 66, or nylon 6/6, is a more crystalline version of nylon 6. It is also referred to as polyamide 66 or PA 66. It has improved mechanical properties due to its more ordered molecular structure. Nylon 66 for machining has improved temperature resistance and lower rates of water absorption when compared to standard nylon 6.  The advantages of nylon 6,6 are that the yield strength is higher than nylon 6 and nylon 610. It has high strength, toughness, rigidity, and low coefficient of friction in a wide temperature range. In addition, it is oil resistant and resistant to chemical reagents and solvents. However, PA66 has strong hygroscopicity and poor dimensional stability, which limits its application. In order to obtain nylon 66 engineering material with higher strength, it should be modified by glass fiber reinforcement. The mechanical properties of long glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 (LGFR-PA66) are obviously better than those of short glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 (SGFR-PA66), and the molding processing performance is also better. It can be molded by various molding methods such as injection molding and compression molding, and complex components can also be formed. Therefore, long glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 can be widely used in building materials, aerospace, electronic devices, furniture and other fields, especially in the automotive industry application market. The production process of long glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 is different from that of short glass fiber reinforced nylon 66. The short glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 particle is chopped under the friction and shearing of screw and barrel, and the short glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 particle is obtained with the length of glass fiber monofilament about 0.5mm. The length of some glass fiber monofilament in the final product is lower than the critical length of reinforcement, and the glass fiber is easy to be extracted from the nylon 66 matrix when the product is stressed. The strength of glass fiber is not fully utilized, and the mechanical properties of the product are not high. Long glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 has better reinforcement effect and dimensional stability, and the rigidity, tensile, bending, impact resistance and fatigue resistance of the manufactured products are better, and the service life is longer.
