What’s PPA LCF30?

PPA LCF30 is a high-performance engineering plastic. Its composition and content are as follows:
– PPA (polyphthalamide): It serves as the main matrix resin, boasting outstanding physical, thermal and electrical properties along with good chemical resistance. It offers the fundamental performance framework for the material.
– 30% long carbon fiber: Having a content of 30%, long carbon fiber plays a crucial reinforcing role in the material. It significantly enhances the strength and rigidity of the material, enabling PPA LCF30 to bear greater loads and stresses. Compared with unreinforced PPA, its strength and rigidity are notably boosted. For instance, in some applications of automotive parts and aerospace structural components with high mechanical property requirements, the reinforcing effect of long carbon fiber allows the material to meet stringent usage conditions. At the same time, the addition of carbon fiber also helps reduce the specific gravity of the material and achieve lightweight, which is of great significance in weight-sensitive fields such as automobiles and aerospace.

This material combines the excellent performance of PPA and the reinforcing effect of long carbon fiber. It has characteristics like high strength, high rigidity, good heat resistance, chemical resistance and excellent dimensional stability. It has broad application prospects in many fields such as automobiles, electronic appliances and aerospace.

Which Performance Characteristics does PPA LCF30 Has?

1. High strength and rigidity: Containing 30% long carbon fiber gives it extremely high strength and rigidity and can withstand greater forces and pressures.
2. Excellent high-temperature resistance: It can maintain good mechanical strength and dimensional stability in high-temperature environments and will not soften or melt.
3. Good chemical resistance: It can resist the corrosion and dissolution of various chemicals and is not prone to deterioration or damage.
4. Low warpage performance: Compared to other plastic materials, it is not easy to warp after being heated and can maintain good flatness.
5. Excellent hydrolysis resistance: It has good durability in water and humid environments and will not cause chemical changes or damage even after being soaked in water for a long time.
6. Good processability: It allows for a short injection molding cycle time and is easy to process and mold.
7. Good dimensional stability: It has a low coefficient of thermal expansion.
8. Good fatigue resistance and creep resistance: Due to the addition of reinforcements, the fatigue resistance and creep resistance of the composite material are improved.

In comparison with PPA LGF30, what advantages does PPA LCF30 possesses?

PPA LCF30 for High-end Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Frames

In the production of high-end UAVs, PPA LCF30 emerges as an ideal material option.

During flight, UAVs need to endure various stresses such as aerodynamic forces, vibrations, and potential collisions. The 30% long carbon fiber in PPA LCF30 endows the material with exceptionally high strength and rigidity, guaranteeing that the UAV frame maintains structural integrity in harsh flight environments. Even under high-speed flight and complex airflow conditions, there will be no deformation or damage.

Simultaneously, its low specific gravity property helps reduce the overall weight of the UAV and enhance flight efficiency and endurance. This is of great significance for high-end UAVs that pursue high performance and long flight duration.

Moreover, PPA LCF30 has good chemical resistance and heat resistance. In different environmental conditions, it can resist the erosion of various chemicals and the impact of high temperatures. Whether in a hot desert area or a humid marine environment, the UAV frame can maintain stable performance.

Regarding processing, the excellent processing performance of PPA LCF30 makes the production of UAV frames more efficient and precise. Through processes like injection molding, complex-shaped frame components can be rapidly manufactured to meet the diverse requirements of UAV design.

PPA LCF30 has demonstrated outstanding performance in the manufacturing of high-end UAV frames and provides reliable material support for the development of the UAV industry.
