PP LCF5 is a thermoplastic composite material enhanced and modified by taking polypropylene as the base material and adding 5% long carbon fiber as the filling material.

I. Composition of PP LCF5

This material is mainly composed of polypropylene and long carbon fiber. Polypropylene as the base material provides good formability and stability. The addition of long carbon fiber greatly enhances the performance of the material.

II. Performance characteristics

1. High strength: The reinforcing effect of long carbon fiber makes the material have excellent tensile strength and bending strength.
2. High stiffness: It is not easy to deform when subjected to external forces, maintaining the stability of the structure.
3. Good heat resistance: It can maintain stable performance at higher temperatures.
4. Strong wear resistance: It performs well in a friction environment and prolongs service life.
5. Lightweight: Compared with metal materials, it is lighter in weight and convenient for transportation and installation.
6. Good chemical resistance: It is resistant to a variety of chemical substances.
7. Antistatic performance: It can effectively prevent electrostatic accumulation and reduce risks such as fire.

III. Application fields

PP LCF5 composite material is widely used in fields such as automobiles, electronics, aerospace, etc. In the automotive field, it can be used to manufacture engine parts, interior parts, etc.; in the electronic field, it can be used to make electronic product casings.

Application Case of PP LCF5

A high-end electronic equipment manufacturing enterprise has been committed to researching and developing high-performance, safe and reliable electronic products. In the product design process, the electrostatic problem has always been a difficult problem for them. Static electricity will not only affect the performance of electronic equipment, but may also cause damage to the equipment and even cause safety accidents such as fires.

After extensive research and testing, the enterprise finally chose the PP LCF5 composite material produced by Carbon (Xiamen) New Material to make the casing of electronic products. This material has excellent antistatic performance. The surface resistivity can be as low as 10⁶Ω·cm, which can effectively conduct static electricity and avoid electrostatic accumulation.

In practical applications, the casing made of PP LCF5 composite material not only solves the electrostatic problem, but also has advantages such as high strength and light weight. Compared with traditional materials, the weight is reduced by 30%, and the strength is increased by 50%. This makes the product more portable and easy to use, and also improves the durability of the product.

In addition, the good chemical resistance and heat resistance of this material also provide a guarantee for the use of the product in various complex environments. Whether in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment or in contact with chemical substances, the PP LCF5 composite material can maintain stable performance.

In conclusion, PP LCF5 composite material provides strong support for the development of various industries with its excellent performance and wide application fields. The application in antistatic performance provides a guarantee for the safe and reliable operation of electronic equipment.
