LFT PPA Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer for Durable Applications

What Is Polyphthalamide (PPA)?

Polyphthalamide is a high-performance resin and member of the nylon family with exceptional thermal, mechanical, and physical properties. It is hygroscopic, opaque, semicrystalline, and can be used in plastic injection molding. Most PPA are filled with glass fiber or carbon fiber to enhance stiffness for high-temperature applications. As a result, PPA is often used in applications in place of metal or higher-priced thermoplastic.

What Are the Uses of Polyphthalamide (PPA)?

Polyphthalamide has many uses. It is used for electronics and electrical, automotive, cables & wires, and many other applications. 

Polyphthalamide is used chiefly as an alternative for several metal components in the industries such as automotive and others. PPA can be used for fuel & coolant lines, motor bobbin parts, pump wear rings, fuel line connectors, fuel cut-off valves, water heater manifolds, fuel modules, thermostat housings, coolant pumps, air coolers, and LED headlights.PPA enables the creation of automobile components with better mechanical strength and decreased overall vehicle weight. As a result, the use of PPA helps to lower fuel consumption. 

PPA is also used for multiple electronic applications, as the high melting point of PPA allows SMD parts molded from PPA to be assembled using a lead-free soldering process. PPAs are also utilized for USB-C connectors, cable & wire protection, and LED mounts. 

Other uses for PPA-based resins include gas pipes and supply lines for the oil industry.

What Are the Advantages of Polyphthalamide (PPA) in Plastic Injection Molding?

The advantages of PPA in plastic injection molding are as follows:
Very high stiffness and strength
Good heat, chemical, and fatigue resistance
Can resist infrared soldering environments
Low water absorption and relatively low moisture
Very low creep tendency
Good dimensional stability
