POM CF50 (POM-CF-BCA5) is a modified polyoxymethylene engineering plastic with 50% carbon fiber. 50% carbon fiber reinforced POM granules have excellent mechanical and electrical properties, enhanced wear resistance, dimensional stability and some conductivity, etc.
POM CF50 is a modified material of polyoxymethylene engineering plastic.
I. Basic Components
– POM, known as polyoxymethylene, is a high-crystalline polymer. It boasts excellent mechanical, electrical properties, along with wear resistance and self-lubrication. A crucial engineering plastic.
– The “CF” in POM CF50 represents carbon fiber. The carbon fiber content in this material is approximately 50%, which may vary a bit depending on the manufacturer and product batch.
II. Performance Characteristics
– Mechanical Properties: Carbon fiber greatly boosts the strength and rigidity of POM. POM CF50 has very high tensile, bending and impact strengths. Compared to regular POM materials, it can handle larger external forces and loads, ideal for applications demanding high mechanical properties.
– Wear Resistance: POM inherently has decent wear resistance. The reinforcement of carbon fiber further enhances this, giving POM CF50 a longer lifespan in abrasive environments. Useful for making parts that endure frequent friction.
– Dimensional Stability: POM CF50 shows good stability in dimensions. Under various temperature and humidity conditions, its size changes minimally, ensuring product accuracy and stability.
– Electrical Conductivity: Since carbon fiber is conductive, POM CF50 also has some electrical conductivity. Applicable in situations sensitive to static electricity or requiring conductivity.
Application Field | Product Name | Performance |
---|---|---|
Automobile manufacturing | Engine parts, transmission gears | High strength, high rigidity, good wear resistance, dimensional stability |
Electronic equipment | Shell, connector | Dimensional stability, certain electrical conductivity |
Mechanical engineering | Mechanical parts (such as sliders, cams, etc.) | High strength, high rigidity, good wear resistance |
Notes
1: POM CF50’s unique properties make it an ideal choice for applications that require a combination of strength, wear resistance, and dimensional stability.
2: The product names mentioned are just examples, and POM CF50 can be used in a wide variety of other products within these application fields.
POM CF uses carbon fiber as reinforcement, known for high strength, high modulus and low density. It significantly enhances POM’s strength, rigidity and reduces weight, suitable for weight-critical applications. POM GF uses glass fiber, which is cost-effective and widely available. While it also improves POM’s properties, it’s weaker than POM CF.
POM CF has excellent mechanical properties, better wear resistance, great dimensional stability and conductivity. It’s used in high-end manufacturing and electronics. POM GF is popular in general mechanical and construction fields due to cost advantage and decent 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.
