What is the effect of glass fiber content on flame retardancy of halogen-free flame retardant glass fiber reinforced polypropylene?
2024-04-30
Glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (PP/GF) has the advantages of low density, good heat and creep resistance, and high cost performance. It is widely used in electronic and electrical appliances, aerospace, automotive and other industries to prepare lightweight and thin-walled parts to replace steel, engineering plastics and other materials. The limiting oxygen index (LOI) of PP is about 17.0%, ...

The application of composite materials in the field of electric vehicle battery housing
2024-05-11
Arguably one of the most important components in an electric vehicle (EV) is what keeps the battery dry, strong and safe in the event of a crash or fire. There are many terms used to describe this component: housing, casing, tray, box and enclosure; the main materials currently used for battery pack enclosures include steel, aluminum and plastic composites. Not surprisingly, a complete EV ba...

Top Five Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composite Materials
2024-05-27
Polymers are one of the most commonly used and well-known materials of the 21st century. However, pure polymers are not sufficient for use in industries that require great strength and excellent heat resistance. As a result, thermoplastic composites are the preferred materials, and creating these new materials will require overcoming obstacles such as high energy consumption, expensive material co...

Modulus and tensile strength of reinforced fibers for composite materials
2024-07-16
At present, as a common reinforcement fiber for composite materials, there are usually three types: carbon fiber, glass fiber and Kevlar (aramid) fiber. When used for composite reinforcement, the fibers can define the performance standards of the material and are responsible for playing a load-bearing role in the design structure, while the resin matrix is primarily responsible for transferring th...

Plastic bearings: its type and advantages over metal
2024-07-24
After all, they may be used in rugged products and subsystem components, such as bearings made of alloys such as steel and bronze. Or they simply don't think plastic can handle harsh applications or extreme environmental conditions. But the fact is that modern plastic bearings (especially plastic ball bearings) can withstand extreme temperatures, heavy loads and high speeds. However, it is importa...

(Ⅰ) How to deal with flow marks on injection-molded parts?
2024-09-27
(1) P: Poor flow of the molten material leads to the formation of concentric flow marks resembling growth rings on the surface of injection-molded parts, centered around the gate. When low-temperature, high-viscosity molten material with poor flow performance is injected into the cavity in a semi-cured, fluctuating state through the injection port and runner, the material flows along the cavity su...
