Composition

LCF60-PP is a thermoplastic composite material with polypropylene (PP) as the base material. In it, 60% long carbon fibers act as filling materials. Such a high proportion of carbon fibers greatly enhances the strength and rigidity of the material while still maintaining good processability.

Composite method

The production of LCF60-PP uses the impregnation method. Long carbon fibers are immersed in molten polypropylene to ensure that the fibers are evenly distributed and fully combined. This composite method effectively enhances the adhesion between carbon fibers and polypropylene, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the composite material.

Performance characteristics

1. High strength: Due to the high proportion of long carbon fibers, the tensile strength and flexural strength of LCF60 PP are significantly increased, making it very suitable for applications that require high loads.
2. High rigidity: This material shows excellent rigidity and can maintain structural stability.
3. Lightweight: Compared with traditional metal materials, LCF60%-PP has a lower density, which greatly reduces the overall weight of components.
4. Excellent heat resistance: It can maintain stable performance in high-temperature environments and is especially suitable for high-temperature application scenarios.
5. Excellent chemical resistance: It has excellent resistance to most chemical substances, thereby prolonging the service life of the material.
6. Good processability: As a thermoplastic material, PP-LCF60 can be easily processed into parts of various complex shapes through processes such as injection molding.

Application fields

LCF60-PP is widely used in many fields such as automobiles, aerospace, electronic equipment, and sports equipment, especially in occasions that have strict requirements for high strength, low weight, and high temperature resistance.

Application case: sports equipment parts

In the field of sports equipment, LCF60-PP is successfully applied in the manufacturing of high-performance bicycle frames. Traditional frame materials are prone to fatigue and deformation during high-intensity use. However, LCF60+PP becomes an ideal choice with its excellent performance.

Application scenario of LCF60-PP

The PP LCF60 composite material of Carbon (Xiamen) New Material is selected by a well-known brand of high-performance bicycles for manufacturing frames. This frame needs to withstand strong impacts during intense riding while minimizing weight as much as possible to improve riding speed and flexibility. After using LCF60-PP, the strength of the frame is increased by about 25%, while the weight is reduced by 20%. These significant improvements greatly enhance the overall performance of the bicycle and enhance the comfort and controllability of riding.

In addition, the excellent chemical resistance of LCF60+PP ensures that the frame can maintain stable performance under various weather conditions. Whether it is exposed to the sun, washed by rain, or in a humid environment, this frame can handle it with ease. This not only reduces the maintenance cost of bicycles but also greatly improves the user experience.

Through this specific application case, LCF60-PP fully demonstrates its excellent performance in the field of sports equipment and also reflects the strong advantages of Carbon (Xiamen) New Material in material innovation and technology.
