PP-CF20 is a reinforced polypropylene composite material. PP CF20 is widely used in industrial manufacturing products, especially in fields such as automobiles, home appliances, electronic appliances, and construction that require high material strength, heat resistance, and lightweight. Polypropylene is represented as PP inside, while CF represents Carbon Fiber. “20” indicates that the material contains 20% carbon fiber.

PP-CF20 Material properties

High strength and rigidity

Due to the addition of 20% carbon fiber in polypropylene (PP), PP CF20 has higher strength and rigidity than pure polypropylene. At the same time, the addition of 20% carbon fiber greatly enhances the load-bearing capacity of PP, making it have stronger tensile strength, bending strength, and impact toughness. Because these characteristics make PP CF particularly suitable for manufacturing high load structural components, such as automotive parts, building materials, and industrial equipment components.

Heat resistance and dimensional stability

Due to the strengthening effect of carbon fiber, PP CF20 has high heat resistance,. Under high temperature conditions, its material and shape stability will not change. Due to these characteristics, PP CF20 is widely used in components that create high-temperature environments, such as car engine hoods, radiator grilles, and heating element housings in household appliances.

Lightweight

The density of carbon fiber is much lower than that of metal materials under the same strength and shape, so PP CF20 has significant weight advantages compared to traditional metal materials. This lightweight feature enables it to help vehicles reduce weight, improve fuel efficiency, and lower carbon dioxide emissions, making it a highly favored material in the automotive industry.

Excellent chemical resistance

Polypropylene itself has strong chemical corrosion resistance and can resist the damage of most acids, bases, and organic solvents. This characteristic will not be changed by the addition of carbon fiber reinforced materials. Therefore, PP CF20 has strong resistance to chemical corrosion, making it widely used in chemical equipment, pipelines, and storage tanks that frequently come into contact with chemicals or corrosive substances.

Low shrinkage and high precision

Due to the low shrinkage rate of polypropylene (PP) during injection molding, and the significant reduction of deformation during cooling by filling with carbon fibers. This means that the properties and dimensions of each component manufactured using PP CF20 are almost identical, making it suitable for precision industrial products with strict shape and size requirements.

Application Fields

Automotive Industry

PP-CF20 has a wide range of applications in the automotive industry, especially suitable for manufacturing components with high requirements for strength and lightweight, such as body structural components, door interior panels, instrument panel frames, and bumpers. Due to its high strength, heat resistance, and light weight, PP-CF20 can help car manufacturers reduce the overall weight of their vehicles while ensuring safety and durability, thereby improving fuel efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and emissions. In addition, the chemical and corrosion resistance of PP CF20 also make it suitable for components such as liquid delivery pipelines and storage tanks in automobiles.

Home appliance industry

In the field of home appliance manufacturing, PP-CF20 is used to manufacture the outer shell and internal parts of large household appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, etc. The operation of these household appliances is usually accompanied by high temperatures and humidity, therefore requiring the use of heat-resistant, durable, and non deformable materials. PP-CF20 not only meets these requirements, but also ensures the long-term reliability of household appliance components. In addition, due to its excellent dimensional stability, PP-CF20 can also improve the appearance quality of products and reduce the problem of low yield.

Electronic appliances

In the electronics and electrical industry, PP CF20 is commonly used in the manufacturing of electronic device casings and support structures due to its excellent mechanical properties and electrical insulation. For example, in large electronic products such as televisions and audio equipment, sturdy and lightweight casings are required, while PP-CF20 can provide better protection performance while reducing overall weight. In addition, PP CF20 can resist the heat generated by electronic devices during long-term operation, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

Construction and Industrial Equipment

In the construction industry, PP-CF20 is used to manufacture various building components such as wall panels, roof panels, and insulation materials due to its high strength and durability. Its resistance to chemical corrosion makes it suitable for components in buildings and industrial equipment that come into contact with chemicals or moisture. PP-CF20 is also widely used in industrial equipment such as pumps, valves, and storage tanks, which require long-term operation in harsh environments and require materials with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.

Environmental Protection and Sustainability

PP-CF20 not only has excellent material properties, but also has good environmental characteristics. Firstly, carbon fiber and polypropylene are relatively environmentally friendly materials with a low carbon footprint during the production process. Secondly, the lightweight characteristics of PP-CF20 help reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of vehicles such as cars, thereby contributing to more sustainable development. In addition, PP-CF20 can be recycled and reused through mechanical processing or chemical decomposition, further reducing its negative impact on the environment.
