Anti-static ABS CF 25 offers good antistatic performance, preventing static generation and accumulation for safety in static-sensitive fields. Excellent mechanical properties with high strength from added CF, good wear resistance, and easy processing for various shapes. Lightweight yet strong, crucial for weight-sensitive apps.
ABS resin matrix: ABS, namely acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer, serves as the main constituent of this material, endowing it with fundamental plastic properties. ABS resin is widely employed in the plastics field due to its excellent toughness, chemical resistance, and ease of processing. In Anti-static ABS CF 25, the content of ABS resin is maintained within a specific proportion range to guarantee the overall performance of the material.
Antistatic agent: To attain antistatic performance, a certain amount of antistatic agent is added to the material. This agent can form a conductive layer on the material surface, enabling rapid conduction and dissipation of static electricity, thus fulfilling the antistatic purpose. The type and addition amount of the antistatic agent are selected and adjusted based on the specific application scenario and antistatic requirements of the material.
Carbon fiber reinforcer:
Long carbon fiber: It functions as a reinforcing framework within the material. Possessing a high aspect ratio, it can establish a continuous reinforcing network in the material, effectively transferring stress and thereby significantly enhancing the material’s strength and stiffness. The filling quantity of long carbon fiber is generally around 25% (which is the significance of “25” in CF 25). Its length typically ranges from several millimeters to dozens of millimeters and can be chosen according to specific application requirements.
Short carbon fiber: It plays an auxiliary role in reinforcement and performance improvement. With a relatively shorter length, usually between several hundred micrometers and several millimeters, it can be uniformly dispersed in the material, increasing the strength and toughness. Additionally, short carbon fiber can also enhance the material’s processing performance and reduce the agglomeration that might occur during the processing of long carbon fiber. The filling amount of short carbon fiber is adjusted in accordance with the content of long carbon fiber and specific performance demands to achieve the optimal comprehensive performance.

What are CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites?
CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites are materials where carbon fibers are incorporated into a thermoplastic matrix. They combine the strength and stiffness of carbon fibers with the processability and recyclability of thermoplastics. For instance, they are used in automotive parts like bumper beams.
What are the benefits of CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites over traditional composites?
The key benefits include faster production cycles, easier recyclability, and better impact resistance. They also offer design flexibility. An example is in the manufacturing of consumer electronics casings where complex shapes can be achieved more easily.
How are CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites processed?
Common processing methods include injection molding, extrusion, and compression molding. Injection molding is widely used for mass production. For example, in the production of small components for the medical industry.
What industries use CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites?
They are utilized in aerospace, automotive, medical, and sports equipment industries. In aerospace, they can be found in interior components. In the medical field, they might be used in prosthetics.
How does the carbon fiber content affect the properties of the composites?
Higher carbon fiber content generally leads to increased strength and stiffness but may reduce ductility. A moderate content is often balanced for specific applications. For example, a higher content might be preferred in structural parts of a race car.
What are the challenges in using CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites?
Challenges include higher material costs, complex processing equipment requirements, and ensuring uniform fiber dispersion. Issues with adhesion between the fibers and the matrix can also arise. An example is in achieving consistent quality in large-scale production.
