What's long fiber fibre?
Long glass fibre composite is a type of composite material that is composed of a thermoplastic polymer matrix reinforced with long glass fibres. The fibres are typically woven together and covered in a thermoplastic resin, which is then molded into the desired shape using injection molding or compression molding.
What's the advantages of long glass fibre?
One of the key advantages of long glass fibre composite is its strength and stiffness. The long fibres provide a high degree of reinforcement, which means that the final material is much stronger and more rigid than other types of composite materials that use shorter fibres. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require high strength and durability, such as automotive parts, sporting equipment, and construction materials.
Another advantage of long glass fibre composite is its ability to resist impact and fatigue. The long fibres help to distribute the load evenly across the material, which reduces the likelihood of cracks and other forms of damage. This makes it an excellent choice for applications that require high impact resistance, such as protective equipment and military hardware.
Long glass fibre composite is also lightweight and easy to work with, making it a popular choice among manufacturers. The material can be easily molded into complex shapes, which allows for greater design flexibility and customization. Additionally, it is highly resistant to corrosion and other forms of chemical degradation, which makes it suitable for use in harsh environments.
Long glass fibre composite is a versatile and durable material that offers a wide range of benefits for manufacturers and end-users alike. Its unique combination of strength, stiffness, impact resistance, and lightweight makes it an ideal choice for a variety of industrial and consumer applications. With ongoing research and development, it is expected that the use of long glass fibre composite will continue to grow in popularity in the years to come.
Outstanding Case Sharing
In 2021, a customer making home appliance parts approached us and said, "The PP-GF material we are using now has insufficient performance, and we need a high-performance material to improve the strength and toughness product performance of washing machine parts."
After evaluating the proposal from our technical department, we suggested the customer to use "LFT-G® PP-NG05-LGF50% material. After our reasonable technical guidance, the mechanical properties of the washing machine parts made of our LFT-G® PP-NG05-LGF50% material were improved by 30%-40%. The customer's feedback is very satisfied with the use of the results, for the customer in the target country market to obtain a great market advantage. We have exported more than 2,000MT material to our customers, and we are able to provide our customers with continuous and stable supply.
