Nylon and carbon fiber are both excellent materials in the field of engineering plastics. The composite material comprehensively reflects the advantages of the two. For example, the strength and rigidity are much higher than that of unreinforced nylon, the high temperature creep is small, and the thermal stability is significantly improved. , Good dimensional accuracy and wear resistance. It has e...

Polyamide polymers (long fiber modified nylon) are mainly used in the automotive industry as the following components: ①The radiator is a large product made of glass fiber reinforced polyamide. After replacing the original metal material with polyamide, the weight of the product can be greatly reduced. ②The pulley is a product made of glass fiber reinforced polyamide added with graphite. After rep...

High temperature resistant nylon refers to the nylon material that can be used in the environment above 150℃ for a long time. The melting point is generally 290℃~320℃, and it maintains excellent mechanical properties in a wide temperature range and high humidity environment. High temperature resistant nylon has good wear resistance, heat resistance, oil resistance and chemical resistance. Compared...

Invention of nylon Nylon (Nylon), named Polyamide in English, is a man-made polymer. Wallace Carothers of DuPont invented the plastic on February 28, 1935, in Wilmington, USA. Nylon was officially marketed in 1938. The first nylon products were nylon brushes for toothbrushes (sold on February 24, 1938) and nylon stockings for women (sold on May 15, 1940). The appearance of nylon makes the textile ...

Polypropylene (PP) is divided into homopolymer polypropylene (PP-H), block (impact resistance) copolymer polypropylene (PP-B) and random (random) copolymer polypropylene (PP-R), so what are the advantages and disadvantages of all kinds of PP? I'll share it with you here. 1. Homopolymer polypropylene (PP-H) It is made by polymerization of a single propylene monomer. The molecular chain does not con...

Nylon is a high performance polymer material in traditional industry. Nylon has also become one of the most widely used materials in 3D printing. PA6, PA11, PA12, PA66 and so on often appear in the available materials for 3D printing. In form, it is divided into powder materials which can be used for powder bed 3D printing technology, such as selective laser sintering (SLS) and multi-jet fusion (M...

What is PA12-LCF? PA12-LCF is a thermoplastic material, belonging to the nylon class. PA12-LCF is based on nylon 12, which has 12 carbon atoms in each polymer repeat unit. Nylon 12 is also known as polyamide 12 or PA12. It is a semi-crystalline material with a high melting point (180°C) and a low moisture absorption rate (0.5%). It is also resistant to chemicals, wear and impact. PA12-LCF is a mod...

HIPS and ABS are the first plastic materials used in household appliances, due to the high price of HIPS and ABS resin, the market has gradually developed PP(polypropylene) modified materials suitable for household appliance parts, and partially replaced HIPS and ABS resin in household appliance products with its advantages of low cost, light weight and good performance. Now the modified PP plasti...

Introduction Fiber-reinforced polymer composites, due to their lightweight and high-strength characteristics, have found applications in many fields, especially in the transportation sector, where they can effectively reduce vehicle weight and better achieve energy savings and emission reductions. Among them, long glass fiber (LGF) reinforced polyamide materials (PA/LGF) are widely used in the man...
