Performance indicator | PPS GF5 (Polyphenylene sulfide filled with 5% glass fiber) | PPS CF5 (Polyphenylene sulfide filled with 5% carbon fiber) |
---|---|---|
Mechanical properties | It has relatively high strength and good toughness, and can withstand a certain degree of external force impact. It performs well in some applications with medium strength requirements, such as electrical enclosures. | It has extremely high strength and strong rigidity, and is excellent in withstanding high loads and resisting deformation. It is often used in fields with harsh requirements for mechanical properties, such as aerospace components. |
Heat resistance | It has good heat resistance and can be used for a long time at relatively high temperatures without significant deformation or performance degradation. Usually, it can withstand temperatures around 200℃. | It has extremely excellent heat resistance and can maintain stable performance at even higher temperatures. It can withstand temperatures as high as 250℃ or even higher, and is suitable for special applications in high-temperature environments. |
Conductivity | Basically non-conductive, it is applicable in occasions with high requirements for electrical insulation, such as insulating parts of electronic equipment. | It has certain conductivity and can meet some special application requirements that need conductivity or antistatic properties, such as the enclosures of certain special electronic components. |
Corrosion resistance | It has good resistance to various chemical substances and can maintain stable performance in general chemical environments. It can resist the erosion of common acid, alkali, and salt solutions. | It has extremely strong resistance to chemical substances such as acids and alkalis. It can still maintain good performance in harsh chemical corrosion environments and is especially suitable for special applications in the chemical industry. |

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.
