PLA-LCF Polylactic acid or PLA is a bio-based polymer made using lactic acid from the sugar fermentation process. It was originally intended as a more environmentally friendly alternative to crude oil-based polymers and is technically biodegradable (albeit under industrial compost conditions). In addition to being the most widely used polymer in the desktop 3D printing space, PLA also has a variety of applications in packaging, disposable cups and more. Although it is very cost effective, easy to process and easy to 3D print, pure PLA has poor thermal and mechanical stability and is therefore not suitable for any high performance applications. One way to improve material properties is to use additives such as carbon fiber reinforced materials, as carbon fiber composites can provide an excellent mix of mechanical properties and heat resistance. Long carbon fiber reinforced PLA is an outstanding material that is strong, lightweight, has excellent layer bonding and low warpage. It has excellent layer adhesion and low warpage. Long carbon fiber PLA is stronger than other 3D-printed materials. Long carbon fiber filaments are not as strong as other 3D materials, but tougher. The increased rigidity of carbon fiber means increased structural support but reduced overall flexibility. It is slightly more brittle than regular PLA. When printed, the material is a dark glossy color that shimmers slightly under direct light. characteristic The fracture strain is moderate (8-10%), so the silk is not brittle, but strong toughness Very high melt strength and viscosity Good dimensional accuracy and stability Easy to handle on many platforms High attractive matte black surface Excellent impact resistance and lightness Application of long carbon fiber filliing PLA material Long carbon fiber filling PLA is an ideal material for frames, braces, shells, propellers, tools, instruments, etc. Virtually no bending will occur. Drone makers and RC enthusiasts especially like it. Ideal for applications requiring maximum stiffness and strength.
