What is PA6 plastic? polyamide (PA), usually called Nylon, is a hetero-chain polymer containing amide group (-NHCo -) in the main chain. It can be divided into aliphatic group and aromatic group. It is the earliest developed and the most used thermoplastic engineering material. Polyamide main chain contains many repeated amide group, used as a plastic called nylon, used as a synthetic fiber called nylon. A variety of different polyamides can be prepared according to the number of carbon atoms contained in binary amines and dibasic acids or amino acids. At present, there are dozens of polyamides, among which polyamide-6, polyamide-66 and polyamide-610 are the most widely used. Polyamide-6 is an aliphatic polyamide, with light weight, strong strength, wear resistance, weak acid and alkali resistance and some organic solvents, easy molding and processing and other excellent properties, widely used in fiber, engineering plastics and thin films and other fields, but PA6 molecular chain segment contains strong polarity amide groups, easy to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, The product has the disadvantages of large water absorption, poor dimensional stability, low impact strength in dry state and low temperature, strong acid and alkali resistance. Advantages of nylon 6: High mechanical strength, good toughness, high tensile and compressive strength. Outstanding fatigue resistance, the parts after repeated bending can still maintain the original mechanical strength. High softening point, heat resistant. Smooth surface, small friction coefficient, wear-resistant. Corrosion resistance, very resistant to alkali and most salts, also resistant to weak acids, oil, gasoline, aromatic compounds and general solvents, aromatic compounds are inert, but not resistant to strong acids and oxidants. It can resist the corrosion of gasoline, oil, fat, alcohol, alkaline and so on, and has good anti-aging ability. It is self-extinguishing, non-toxic, odorless, good weather resistance, inert to biological erosion, and has good antibacterial and mildew resistance. Has excellent electrical performance, good electrical insulation, nylon volume resistance is high, high breakdown voltage resistance, in dry environment, can work frequency insulation material, even in high humidity environment still has good electrical insulation. Light weight, easy dyeing, easy forming, because of low melting viscosity, can flow quickly. Disadvantages of Nylon 6: Easy to absorb water, water absorption, saturated water can reach more than 3%. Poor light resistance, in the long-term high temperature environment will oxidize with oxygen in the air, the color turns brown at the beginning, and the subsequent surface is broken and cracked. Injection molding technology requirements more strict, the existence of trace moisture will cause great damage to the quality of molding; The dimensional stability of the product is difficult to control because of thermal expansion. The existence of sharp Angle in the product will lead to stress concentration and reduce the mechanical strength; If the wall thickness is not uniform, it will lead to the distortion and deformation of the parts. High precision of equipment is required in post-processing. Will absorb water, alcohol and swelling, not resistant to strong acid and oxidant, can not be used as acid-resistant materials. Why filling Long Glass Fiber? PA6 has excellent properties such as light weight, strong strength, abrasion resistance, weak acid and alkali resistance and some organic solvents, and easy molding and processing. It is widely used in the fields of fibers, engineering plastics and films. However, the molecular chain segment of PA6 contains highly polar amide groups, which are easy to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. The product has the disadvantages of large water absorption, poor dimensional stability, low impact strength in dry state and low temperature, strong acid and alkali resistance. With the development of science and technology and the improvement of life quality, the defects in some properties of traditional PA6 materials have limited its development in some fields. In order to improve the performance of PA6 and expand its application field, PA6 should be modified. Filling enhancement modification is a common method for physical modification of PA6. It refers to the modification of PA6 by adding fillers such as glass fiber and carbon fiber into the matrix to significantly improve the mechanical properties, flame retardant properties, thermal conductivity and dimensional stability of the material. What is application of PA6-LGF? Modified section of 30% long glass fiber reinforced PA6 is the ideal material for processing power tool shell, power tool parts, engineering machinery parts and automobile parts. Its mechanical properties, dimensional stability, heat resistance and aging resistance have been significantly improved. The fatigue resistance strength is 2.5 times that of unenha...

Polyamide 66 roving carbon fiber Nylon black color with heat resistance

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.

Application of PA66-LCF Certificate Quality Management System ISO9001/16949 Certification National Laboratory Accreditation Certificate Modified Plastics Innovation Enterprise Honorary Certificate Heavy metal REACH & ROHS testing Factory & Lab Q & A 1. Is there a unified reference data for carbon fiber product performance? The performance of specific carbon fiber filaments is fixed, such as Toray's carbon fiber filaments, T300, T300J, T400, T700 and so on, there are a series of parameters can be traced. However, there is no uniform standard to measure the carbon fiber composite products. Firstly, the different types of raw materials selected will lead to different performance of the products, and then due to the choice of matrix and the different design of the products, it will lead to different performance of the products. In addition to some common carbon fiber tubes, carbon fiber boards and other conventional parts, most of the carbon fiber products in the production of the sample before the test to determine whether the performance of the product is in line with the use of the expected standard, and as a base point, so as to carry out the production and use of large quantities. 2. Are carbon fiber composite products expensive? The price of carbon fiber composite products is closely related to the price of raw materials, the level of technology and the quantity of products. Some products of the industrial environment requirements are high, the performance of carbon fiber products and materials have special requirements, which requires the selection of specific raw materials, raw materials, the higher the performance of the natural price of the more expensive, such as the application of orthopedic carbon fiber PEEK thermoplastic materials. Of course, the more complex the production process, the greater the working time and workload, and the production cost increases. However, the larger the order quantity, the lower the cost per piece, once the mass production of a particular carbon fiber product has been established. In the long run, the superior performance of carbon fiber will prolong the service life of the product, reduce the number of maintenance, and is also very beneficial to the reduction of the cost of use. 3. Are carbon fiber composite products toxic? Carbon fiber composites are made of carbon fiber filaments mixed with ceramics, resins, metals and other matrices, generally not toxic. For example, the above mentioned PEEK material is a food grade resin, this material has good compatibility...
