What’re PA66 CF raw materials?

I. Basic Composition of PA66-CF Raw Materials

1. Nylon PA66 matrix
– PA66 is an engineering thermoplastic with high strength, high rigidity, good heat resistance and thermal stability, and is widely used in industry.

2. Carbon fiber
– Carbon fiber is a high-performance fiber material with the advantages of light weight, high strength, high modulus, corrosion resistance, and low expansion coefficient. Adding it to PA66 can significantly improve the material’s performance.

II. Performance Characteristics

1. Excellent mechanical properties
– High strength: Significantly increase the tensile strength of PA66 and can bear greater loads. It can be used in fields such as automotive parts and aerospace components.
– High rigidity: Enhance the rigidity of the material and is not easy to deform. It is suitable for parts that require precise dimensions and shape stability, such as the casings of precision instruments.

2. Light weight
– Carbon fiber has a low density. When combined with PA66, the overall weight of the material is reduced. In fields with strict weight requirements such as aerospace, it can reduce the weight of aircraft and improve fuel efficiency and flight performance.

3. Good wear resistance
– Improve the wear resistance of the material, reduce wear and loss during use, and extend service life. It has advantages in scenarios with frequent friction such as mechanical transmission parts and sliding guides.

4. Improved thermal performance
– PA66 itself has good heat resistance. The carbon fiber has good thermal conductivity, further improving the thermal stability of the material. The heat distortion temperature is increased, and it can maintain good performance in a relatively high-temperature environment.

5. Good dimensional stability
– Limit the movement of PA66 molecular chains and reduce dimensional changes when heated or under stress, improving the dimensional stability of the material.

What’re the Categories of PA66-CF raw materials?

I. Long cf nylon 66: The fiber length of long fiber carbon fiber is relatively long, usually several centimeters or even longer. Long fiber carbon fiber can form a continuous reinforced structure, endowing the material with better mechanical properties and integrity. However, the processing difficulty is relatively high.

II. Chopped cf nylon 66: Carbon fiber is cut into shorter lengths, generally ranging from a few millimeters to several tens of millimeters. Chopped carbon fiber has good dispersibility due to its shorter length. This makes it easier to process and mold. It is suitable for some application scenarios that do not have high requirements for fiber length.

For example, in some ordinary industrial products, it can not only meet certain mechanical property requirements but also will not bring processing difficulties due to the excessive length of the fiber. At the same time, the cost of chopped carbon fiber is relatively low, also providing a feasible solution for some applications that are sensitive to cost.
