PA6-CF30: High-Performance Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polyamide 6
PA6-CF30 is a high performance polyamide 6 (PA6) composite reinforced with 30% carbon fiber, providing exceptional strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability compared to unreinforced PA6. The increased carbon fiber content further enhances mechanical durability, reduces creep, and minimizes deformation under heavy loads. This material is well suited for demanding structural applications requiring superior fatigue resistance and long term reliability under high stress conditions.
Key Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: ≥ 150 MPa
Flexural Strength: ≥ 190 MPa
Notched Impact Strength: ≥ 11 kJ/m²
With 30% carbon fiber reinforcement, PA6-CF30 achieves outstanding mechanical performance while maintaining a lightweight structure, making it ideal for high performance industrial and automotive applications.
Thermal and Chemical Resistance
PA6-CF30 provides excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance, ensuring durability in harsh environments.
Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT): Approx. 150°C
Long-Term Service Temperature: Up to 140°C
Chemical Resistance: Excellent resistance to oils, lubricants, and weak acids, but sensitive to strong acids and bases
This material ensures reliable long term stability in applications exposed to high temperatures and aggressive chemicals.
Wear Resistance and Processing
The 30% carbon fiber reinforcement significantly enhances wear resistance and reduces friction, making PA6-CF30 ideal for applications requiring high durability.
Wear Resistance: Greatly improved over unreinforced PA6
Processing Methods: Injection molding, extrusion
Due to the higher fiber content, optimized processing parameters and reinforced tooling are recommended to maintain high quality production and mechanical integrity.
Environmental Adaptability
PA6-CF30 has lower moisture absorption than unfilled PA6, resulting in improved dimensional stability and consistent mechanical properties in humid or fluctuating environments.
Water Absorption: Lower than standard PA6, reducing swelling and mechanical degradation
Dimensional Stability: Significantly improved, ensuring reliability in varying environmental conditions
These properties make PA6-CF30 a top choice for precision engineered components that must withstand moisture and temperature variations.
Typical Applications
PA6-CF30 is designed for high performance applications that require exceptional strength, stiffness, and weight reduction. Common applications include:
Structural Components: Load bearing brackets, support structures, and enclosures
Automotive Parts: High strength brackets, housings, and dashboard supports
Mechanical Engineering: Gears, sliding rails, and bearing housings requiring high durability
Sports Equipment: High impact, lightweight performance components

Strength Comparsion PA6 and PA6-CF
PA6-CF, reinforced with carbon fiber, exhibits significantly higher strength and stiffness compared to unfilled PA6. While standard PA6 offers good toughness and moderate mechanical properties, the addition of carbon fiber enhances tensile and flexural strength, improving load-bearing capacity and dimensional stability. PA6-CF also has lower creep and reduced thermal expansion, making it more suitable for high performance applications where strength and rigidity are critical. However, PA6 retains better elongation and impact resistance, making it more flexible and less brittle under sudden loads.
