PLA is a non-natural polyester, which is considered as one of the most promising "green plastics" because of its excellent properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability and high mechanical strength. PLA has good degradability and can be completely degraded by microorganisms. Products made of PLA can be completely degraded to CO2 and water after use, and are non-toxic and non-irritating.
PLA has similar mechanical properties to polypropylene, while its gloss, clarity and processability are similar to polystyrene, and its processing temperature is lower than that of polyolefin. PLA can be processed into various packaging materials, fibers and nonwovens through injection molding, extrusion, blistering, blow molding, spinning and other general plastic processing methods, and PLA has been widely used in disposable plastic products. In addition, PLA can also be widely used in chemical, medical, pharmaceutical and 3D printing industries. It is now increasingly recognized that PLA polyesters will play a key role in solving the plastic pollution problem.

Glass fiber (English name: glass fiber or fiberglass) is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance, the advantages of good insulation, heat resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength. One of the main uses of glass fiber for the reinforcement of composite materials. Long glass fiber generally refers to the length of more than 10mm glass fiber.
Long Glass Fiber Reinforced PLA plastic refers to modified PLA composites containing glass fiber lengths of 10 to 25 mm, which are formed into a three-dimensional structure with glass fiber lengths greater than 3.1 mm through injection molding and other processes, and is referred to as Long Glass Fiber PLA, abbreviated as LGFPLA. fiber reinforce thermoplastic). From the material definition, LGFPLA is a kind of LFT.
Generally, they are columnar particles of 12mm or 25mm in length and about 3mm in diameter. The pellets of about 12mm length are mainly used for injection molding, while the pellets of about 25mm length are mainly used for compression molding. In these pellets, the glass fiber has the same length as the pellets, and the glass fiber content can vary from 20% to 60%, and the color of the pellets can be color-matched according to customer requirements.
LGF & SGF
LFT has the following advantages over short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites:
- Longer fiber length, which significantly improves the mechanical properties of the products.
- High specific stiffness and specific strength, good impact resistance, especially suitable for automotive parts applications.
- Improved creep resistance, good dimensional stability, and high precision of part molding.
- Excellent fatigue resistance.
- Better stability in high temperature and humid environment.
- Fibers can move relatively in the molding mold during the molding process, with little fiber damage.
