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.

TPU introduction Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) elastomers are linear polymers formed by the copolymerization of hard and soft chain segments, which have physical properties such as tensile, abrasion and heat resistance, and elasticity similar to rubber. Thanks to the excellent product performance, the application fields of TPU are expanding, including daily consumer goods, construction, medical, military, automotive, agriculture and many other fields. New products and applications are also emerging, such as large-diameter hoses (shale gas extraction), charging cables for new energy vehicles, foamed TPU (ETPU) sports shoes midsoles prepared by supercritical foaming process, invisible braces, etc. Fiber reinforced modified TPU composites TPU has good impact resistance, but in some applications, high modulus of elasticity and very hard material is required. Glass fiber reinforced modification is a common technical means to improve the elastic modulus of the material. Through modification, thermoplastic composites with many advantages such as high elastic modulus, good insulation, heat resistance, good elastic recovery, good corrosion resistance, impact resistance, low coefficient of expansion and dimensional stability can be obtained. Long glass fiber VS Short glass fiber Compared with the short fiber, long fiber has more excellent performance in mechanical properties. It is more suitable for large products and structural parts. It has 1-3 times higher toughness than short fiber, and the tensile strength is increased by 0.5-1 times. Thermoplastics VS Thermosets Thermosets: when heated for the first time, they can soften and flow, and when heated to a certain temperature, they produce a chemical reaction a cross-chain curing and become hard, this change is irreversible, after that, when heated again, they can no longer become soft and flow. Thermoplastic: thermoplastic resin is the main component, and various additives are added to form a plastic. Under certain temperature conditions, plastic can be softened or melted into any shape, and the shape remains unchanged after cooling; this state can be repeated many times and always has plasticity, and this repeated is only a physical change. Advantages Thermosets: Thermoset plastics retain their strength and shape even when heated. This makes thermoset plastics ideal for producing permanent parts and large, strong shapes. In addition, these parts have excellent strength properties (despite their fragility) and do not lose significant strength when exposed to higher operating temperatures. Thermoplastics: Thermoplastics are the most widely used plastics and typically have high chemical and thermal resistance, as well as a high strength structure that is not easily deformed. It is made of thermoplastic resin as the main component with various additives.  Thermoplastic products have excellent electrical insulation, with very low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, suitable for high Frequency and high voltage insulation materials.

What is Polyamide? Polyamide (PA) 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. If you are not sure which PA material is suitable for you, please tell us your needs and our team will provide you with technical support free of charge. What is Polyamide 6? Nylon 6 or PA 6 Has a semi-crystalline structure and is used for nonwoven fabrics Ductility and Abrasion resistance What Are the Advantages of Nylon 6? The main advantages of nylon 6 are its stiffness and resistance to abrasion. Moreover, this material has excellent impact strength, wear resistance, and electrical insulating properties. Nylon 6 is a highly elastic and fatigue-resistant material, meaning it will return to its original proportions after being distorted by tension. This polyamide is non-toxic and can be combined with glass or carbon fibers to increase performance. The absorption capacity of the material grows in direct proportion to the quantity of moisture it absorbs. The high affinity of nylon 6 for some dyestuffs allows for more dyeing diversity, with the potential for brighter, deeper patterns. Can Nylon 6 Be Used in Plastic Injection Molding? Yes, Nylon 6 is a suitable material for injection molding. The resulting molded nylon parts possess great strength, as well as chemical and temperature resistance. When molding nylon 6, the material is sometimes injected with a specified amount of glass fibers (usually between 20% and 60%) to boost its tensile strength. Glass fibers improve stiffness. Moreover, since UV radiation can be harmful to nylon, a UV stabilizer is frequently added to the material before injection molding to decrease the possible degradation of the item with time. Is Nylon 6 a Copolymer? No, nylon 6 is not a copolymer. The clue is in the name “nylon 6” in which the 6 represents the single repeating monomer which has 6 carbon atoms. Nylon 6 is made through the polymerization of a monomer named caprolactam. Nylon 6 is not to be confused with nylon 6,6 which is made of two repeating monomers hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid; this makes it a copolymer. Two other nylons are also copolymers; they are nylon 6,12 and nylon 4,6. Why filling Long Glass Fiber into Polyamide 6? Long glass fiber reinforced composites can solve your problems when other methods of reinforced plastics do not provide the performance you need or if you want to replace metal with plastic. Long glass fiber reinforced composites can cost-effectively reduce the cost of goods and effectively improve the mechanical properties of engineering polymer .Long fibers can be uniformly distributed inside the product to form a network skeleton, thus improving the mechanical properties of the material product. LFT is the product name for a family of long fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials for Injection Molding, Compression Molding and Extrusion applications. These materials differ from standard thermoplastic compounds in the length of the fiberglass in the pellets. Retention of fiber length in the finished part is key to the performance of LFT. The fiberglass is continuous within the pellet and offers incredible properties and performance when molded correctly. What is the application of PA6-LGF?

LFT PA12 Long Carbon Fiber Composite Data Sheet and Technical Guidance

PA12 information Long carbon chain nylon is a nylon with amide group in the main chain repeating unit of nylon molecule, and the length of methylene group between two amide groups is more than 10. We call it as long carbon chain nylon, including nylon 11, nylon 12, etc.. PA12 is nylon 12, also known as poly(dodecalactam) and poly(laurolactam), which is a kind of long carbon chain nylon. The basic raw material for polymerization is butadiene, a semi-crystalline - crystalline thermoplastic material. Nylon 12 is the most widely used long carbon chain nylon, it has most of the general properties of nylon, in addition to low water absorption, and has high dimensional stability, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, good toughness, easy processing and other advantages. Compared with PA11, another long carbon chain nylon material, PA12's raw material butadiene is only one-third the price of PA11's raw material castor oil, and can be used in most scenarios instead of PA11, and has wide applications in many fields such as automotive fuel hoses, air brake hoses, submarine cables, and 3D printing. Among long-chain nylon, PA12 has great advantages compared with other nylon materials, its advantages are the lowest water absorption, lowest density, low melting point, impact resistance, friction resistance, low temperature resistance, fuel resistance, good dimensional stability, good anti-noise effect, etc. PA12 has the properties of PA6, PA66 and polyolefin (PE, PP) at the same time, to achieve the combination of lightweight and physical and chemical properties, with performance It has the advantages of light weight and physical and chemical properties. PA12-LCF If the base material is compared to concrete, the fiber is like steel reinforcement, and mixing the two is like adding steel reinforcement to concrete. If there is only concrete, the castings will easily crack under external forces, but once the high-strength reinforcement is added to it and the concrete wraps it sufficiently, they will become a single unit. When the object is subjected to external forces, the rebar can withstand most of the external forces, making the structural strength of this whole very high. Carbon fiber has many excellent properties, high axial strength and modulus of carbon fiber, low density, high specific performance, no creep, resistance to ultra-high temperature 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 transmittance. 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. Nylon itself is an engineering plastic with excellent performance, but moisture absorption, poor dimensional stability of products. Strength and hardness is 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. Datasheet for reference Nylon 12 has low water absorption, good low temperature resistance, good air tightness, excellent alkali and grease resistance, medium resistance to alcohols and inorganic dilute acids and aromatics, good mechanical and electrical properties, and is a self-extinguishing material.
