Polyamide 12 LFT: Benefits and applications
2024-01-16
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...

LFT & SFT
2024-02-29
LFT is the product name for a family of long fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials for Injection Molding, Compression Molding and Extrusion applications. These materials differ from standard thermoplastic compounds in the length of the fiberglass in the pellets. Retention of fiber length in the finished part is key to the performance of LFT. The fiberglass is continuous within the pel...

Does adding glass fiber affect the gloss of PP material
2024-04-30
The addition of glass fibers to the polymer usually makes its surface rougher, which can lead to a reduction in gloss. The specific degree of impact depends on the proportion, length and shape of the glass fiber added, as well as processing conditions and other factors. Glass fiber is relatively rough, and incompatible with plastic, added to the plastic material, resulting in a less smooth surface...

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...

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...

Why do injection molded parts develop sink marks and dimples?
2024-09-02
(1) Improper control of molding conditions If the injection pressure is too low, the injection and holding time is too short, the injection speed is too slow, the material temperature and mold temperature are too high, the cooling of the plastic part is insufficient, the temperature is too high during demolding, the temperature around the insert is too low, or there is insufficient material supply...

(Ⅲ) How to deal with flow marks on injection-molded parts?
2024-09-27
Mold temperature too low Cause: The low mold temperature causes the molten plastic to cool too quickly in the runner, preventing full fusion. Solution: Increase the mold temperature to ensure the molten plastic flows smoothly and fuses completely. Injection speed too slow Cause: Slow injection speed causes the plastic to flow slowly, extending cooling time and forming weld lines. Solution: Increas...
