I. Composition of TPU LCF30

It uses thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as the base material and 30% long carbon fiber as the filling material. The filling mass percentage of carbon fiber reaches 20%. The introduction of long carbon fiber greatly enhances the performance of the material.

II. Synthesis Process

First, conduct fine surface treatment on the long carbon fiber to enhance its surface activity so that it can better combine with TPU. Then, slowly place the treated long carbon fiber into the TPU melt for full impregnation.

By strictly controlling specific process parameters such as temperature, pressure, and time, ensure that the carbon fiber is fully impregnated in the TPU to achieve a tight combination.

Next, transport the impregnated carbon fiber and TPU mixture to the extrusion equipment. Through precise extrusion molding process, the material forms a specific shape and structure.

Finally, after a series of subsequent processes such as cooling and cutting, high-quality Wear Resistance TPU LCF30 composite material is obtained.

III. Performance Characteristics

1. High strength: The tensile strength is quite high. Under the same volume, its strength is far superior to traditional materials and can withstand large external forces without deformation.
2. High modulus: The elastic modulus is relatively high, with minimal deformation when subjected to force and excellent dimensional stability.
3. High elongation: It has good elongation ability, and its flexibility and tensile resistance are outstanding.
4. Outstanding wear resistance: It can maintain good wear resistance in various harsh environments and significantly extend the service life of products.
5. Good temperature resistance: It can maintain excellent performance in low-temperature environments and also work stably within a certain high-temperature range.
6. Low density: Compared with metal materials, it has a lower density, which helps to achieve product lightweighting.
7. Good processing performance: It can be processed by various common processing methods and adapt to the manufacturing needs of different products.

IV. Application Fields

It is widely used in many fields such as aerospace, automobile manufacturing, electronic products, and sports equipment.

Application Scenario Case

In the field of sports equipment, the Wear Resistance TPU LCF30 composite material produced by Carbon (Xiamen) New Material is successfully applied to the frame manufacturing of high-end tennis rackets.

The high strength and high modulus characteristics of this composite material make the tennis racket frame show excellent stability and no deformation when facing high-intensity hitting impact.

Whether it is the powerful smash of professional players or the vigorous hitting of amateur players, this tennis racket can provide a stable and reliable hitting platform for players.

Its excellent wear resistance enables the racket to maintain a good appearance and performance during long-term and frequent use, greatly extending the service life of the racket.

The high elongation endows the racket with certain flexibility. At the moment of hitting, it can better absorb vibrations and reduce arm injuries, allowing players to protect their bodies while enjoying intense competitions.

Moreover, the low density of this material makes the tennis racket lighter and easier for players to carry and use.

After professional actual testing, the tennis racket made of TPU LCF30 composite material is 15% lighter than traditional aluminum alloy rackets, which means that players can reduce physical consumption and improve competitive status during long-term matches.

At the same time, its strength is increased by 25%, which makes the racket more sturdy and durable and can withstand various harsh usage environments.

This innovative application brings better sports equipment to the majority of tennis enthusiasts and also injects new vitality and impetus into the development of the sports equipment industry.
