LCF50-PEI composite material is like a brilliant industrial pearl, standing out among many materials. It is based on high-performance polyetherimide (Polyetherimide) as a solid foundation, and carefully incorporates long carbon fibers with a mass percentage of up to 50% as filling materials. It is obtained through advanced process-enhanced modification as a thermoplastic composite material.
In terms of the infiltration composite method, Carbon (Xiamen) New Material adopts cutting-edge composite technology in the industry. Through precise process control, it is ensured that each slender carbon fiber can be perfectly infiltrated with polyetherimide. The two are closely combined like a match made in heaven, thus forming a stable and excellent composite material structure.
The performance characteristics of LCF50-PEI composite material are remarkable.
First, it has astonishing high strength. That high carbon fiber content of up to 50% seems to inject steel-like strength into the material, enabling it to easily withstand huge external forces. Whether in extreme working environments or facing accidental impacts, it can be as stable as a mountain and provide reliable protection for products.
Second, it shows extraordinary high rigidity. The material is like an indestructible fortress, with excellent rigidity and is not easily deformed under various pressures, always maintaining a stable form.
Third, the lightweight advantage is significant. Compared with traditional metal materials, it is like a light bird. Without sacrificing strength, it greatly reduces its own weight. This characteristic is undoubtedly a great boon for many fields.
Fourth, its good heat resistance allows it to maintain stable performance even under the test of high temperatures. Even in a hot environment, it can play its role calmly and will not show performance degradation due to temperature increase.
Fifth, it has extremely strong corrosion resistance. It has good tolerance to various chemical substances. Whether it is acid, alkali or other corrosive media, it is difficult to cause damage to it. Sixth, its excellent electrical insulation makes it shine brightly in occasions with strict requirements for electrical performance, providing a solid guarantee for the safe operation of electronic equipment.
The wide range of application fields further demonstrates the powerful strength of LCF50-PEI composite material. In the aerospace field, it can provide high-strength and lightweight solutions for key components of aircraft; in the automotive manufacturing industry, it can help automakers create high-performance, energy-saving and environmentally friendly vehicles; in the field of electronic appliances, its electrical insulation and heat resistance make it an ideal material choice.
In the field of automotive manufacturing, a well-known international automotive brand has launched a stunning high-performance electric sports car. In order to maximize the performance of the vehicle and achieve the goal of lightweight at the same time, the key component of the sports car – the battery case resolutely chose the LCF50-PEI composite material produced by Carbon (Xiamen) New Material.
This carefully designed battery case fully exploits the performance advantages of LCF50-PEI. First of all, high strength and high rigidity build a solid protective wall for the battery. After a series of strict tests, this battery case can withstand an impact force of up to 5500 Newtons without any cracks or deformations. Under various complex road conditions, whether it is on a rugged mountain road or during bumps in high-speed driving, it can ensure the safety of the battery. Secondly, the lightweight feature brings huge advantages to the whole vehicle.
Compared with traditional metal battery cases, the battery case made of LCF50-PEI composite material reduces the weight by 45%. This significant weight reduction effect not only increases the vehicle’s cruising range but also makes the vehicle’s handling performance more flexible. In addition, good heat resistance and corrosion resistance ensure the stable operation of the battery in different environments. Even in hot summer when the outside temperature is above 40 degrees Celsius, the battery case can still maintain good performance and will not affect the safety of the battery due to temperature increase. At the same time, its strong tolerance to various chemical substances enables the battery case to easily resist various corrosive substances that the car may come into contact with during driving, such as rainwater and chemical particles in dust.
The successful application of LCF50-PEI composite material produced by Carbon (Xiamen) New Material on the battery case of this electric sports car fully demonstrates its powerful performance and broad application prospects. It not only brings new breakthroughs to the automotive industry but also provides valuable references for the development of other fields.
