An application case

TPU CF40 has emerged as a top choice for engineers and designers in the contemporary pursuit of high-performance materials within the industry. This remarkable composite material, reinforced with 40% carbon fiber and thermoplastic polyurethane, has achieved a revolutionary breakthrough in the domain of automotive manufacturing.

Envision a high-speed racing car that showcases astonishing stability and precise handling with every twist and turn. The credit for this lies in the utilization of the TPU CF40 material in its body. Not only does it significantly reduce the vehicle’s weight, but it also supplies the indispensable strength and impact resistance. Carbon (Xiamen) New Material, the producer of this revolutionary material, guarantees the outstanding quality of each batch of TPU CF 40 through its state-of-the-art R&D technology and stringent quality control measures.

Another highly notable advantage of TPU CF40 is its exceptionally outstanding wear resistance and corrosion resistance, making it the ideal selection for marine engineering and chemical equipment. In the construction of offshore platforms, the incorporation of TPU 40CF substantially enhances the durability of the structure. It maintains peak performance even in the harshest and most extreme marine environments, where exposure to saltwater, strong winds, and constant pressure pose significant challenges.

Furthermore, the processability of TPU CF40 is equally remarkable. Through traditional injection molding and extrusion processes, intricately shaped parts can be effortlessly manufactured to fulfill the demands of personalized design. This has led to a vast array of applications for TPU CF 40% in aerospace, medical devices, and even in the design of everyday consumer products.

TPU CF40 manufactured by Carbon New Material, with its lightweight, high strength, and multifunctional capabilities, is redefining the benchmarks of modern industrial materials. It is bestowing unprecedented design flexibility and performance enhancements across a diverse range of industries.

What does 40% CF TPU highlight compared with other materials?

1. Elasticity and flexibility: The characteristics of TPU enable TPU + CF40 to have better elasticity and flexibility while maintaining high strength. This makes it outstanding in applications that require a certain degree of deformation ability, such as certain dynamic components or structures that need buffering.
2. Impact resistance: Compared with some brittle carbon fiber composites, TPU – CF40 can better absorb and disperse impact energy, reducing the risk of cracking and being more reliable when subjected to sudden impacts.
3. Processing convenience: TPU itself is a thermoplastic material, making TPU 40%CF relatively easier to be molded through common processing methods such as injection molding and extrusion, and it can produce more complex shapes and structures.
4. Wear resistance: The good wear resistance of TPU endows TPU CF40 with an advantage in application scenarios with frequent friction, reducing wear and damage.
5. Chemical resistance: It may have a wider range of chemical resistance and can remain stable in various chemical environments.
6. Cost-effectiveness: In some applications, TPU 40% CF may have a certain economic advantage while meeting performance requirements at a relatively lower cost.

However, the specific advantages will vary depending on the specific application requirements and usage scenarios, and a comprehensive evaluation and selection need to be made based on the actual situation.
