LFT Polyphenylene Sulfide PPS Manufacturer Glass Fiber filled Compounds engineeing use

PPS plastic (polyphenylene sulfide), is a thermoplastic special engineering plastic with excellent comprehensive properties. Its outstanding features are high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and superior mechanical properties. The product will make a metallic sound when it is dropped to the ground. .

Pure PPS is rarely used alone due to its brittle performance. Most of the PPS used is its modified variety. Glass fiber reinforced PPS is one of them.

PPS lengthened glass fiber (LGF) composite material has the advantages of high toughness, low warpage, fatigue resistance, and good product appearance. It can be used in water heater impellers, pump casings, joints, valves, chemical pump impellers and casings, cooling water impellers and Shells, home appliance parts, etc.

What Are the Characteristics of PPS? 

Polyamides are high-performing polymers that have great strength and wear resistance when compared to other polymers. Other notable characteristics of polyamides are:

Very good chemical resistance.
High tensile strength. 
Good flexibility.
Low creep.
High impact resistance. 
Prone to being hygroscopic.

What Are the Applications of PPS?

At room temperature, the tensile strength of carbon fiber modified PEEK material is doubled compared with that of non-enhanced, and it is tripled at 150℃. At the same time, the enhanced composite material has also been greatly improved in terms of impact strength, bending strength and modulus, and the elongation has been sharply reduced, and the thermal deformation temperature can exceed 300℃.The main advantages of nylon 6 are its stiffness and resistance to abrasion.  Moreover, this material has excellent impact strength, wear resistance, and electrical insulating properties.  Nylon 6 is a highly elastic and fatigue-resistant material, meaning it will return to its original proportions after being distorted by tension. Automotive industry Applications:
Due to its excellent mechanical properties, thermoplastic carbon fiber is widely used in the automotive field of fuel system components, sensors, shell components. On the one hand, it is because of the high strength and stiffness of PPS-LCF, and the finished parts are not easy to damage. On the other hand, PPS-LCF also has a relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion to ensure the stability of the finished product. In addition, PPS-LCF also has very good corrosion and heat resistance, making the application life of the finished product longer.

Industrial Applications:
In the industrial field, it is mainly used in the parts of equipment, such as chemical processing equipment, air pumps, gaskets, valves, etc. In addition to the high strength of the PS-LCF, it is also because the parts made by the PS-LCF have very good self-lubricating properties, which is very important for mechanical parts. Therefore, compared with the traditional carbon fiber material products, the performance has been greatly improved.

The wide range of applications of PPS-LCF include aerospace, automotive manufacturing, electronic equipment, chemical and medical fields.
This polyamide is non-toxic and can be combined with glass or carbon fibers to increase performance.  The absorption capacity of the material grows in direct proportion to the quantity of moisture it absorbs.  The high affinity of nylon 6 for some dyestuffs allows for more dyeing diversity, with the potential for brighter, deeper patterns.

FAQ

*What processes are LFT materials suitable for?

LFT material is mainly suitable for injection molding, as well as partial extrusion. The requirements for injection molding machines are mainly reflected in the nozzle.

*Why are your products so long? Why does the material I used before, filled with glass fiber, look different than this?

Although long fiber modified materials (LFT) and short fiber modified materials (SFT) are through the combination of fiber and resin to produce higher properties of the complex. However, the two materials are different from the production process, internal structure, appearance, performance, application and so on.

Production process: The fiber of SFT is chopped and mixed with resin, and the production process of LFT is melt impregnation.

Internal structure: The fibers inside SFT particles are short and disordered, while the fibers inside LGF are neatly arranged and longer.

Appearance: The length of SFT is usually less than 3 mm, and the length of LFT is 5-24mm.

Performance: LFT impact performance than SFT increased 1-3 times, tensile strength increased by more than 50%, mechanical properties improved by 50-80%.

Application: LFT is more suitable for use in products with high strength requirements, as load-bearing parts and structural parts.
