FAQ
Q: Why is the carbon fiber nylon so called?
A: It is called carbon fiber nylon because it is a composite material, specifically a `carbon reinforced plastic`. In our LFT-G®PA66 CF50, the base is a high-performance nylon (polyamide 66), which is then reinforced with strands of strong, lightweight carbon fiber.
Q:Which have carbon fiber reinforced plastic ?
A: A `carbon fiber reinforced plastic` is any polymer enhanced with carbon fibers. Our **LFT-G® PA66 CF50 exhibits exceptionally high performance because it uses the very strong, high-temperature PA66 polymer matrix combined with a high content (50%) of long carbon fibers.
Q: Can I get some carbon fiber nylon samples?
A: Yes, you can request samples. We are a direct manufacturer of advanced thermoplastic composites, including this high-performance long **carbon fiber reinforced nylon, and we welcome testing for your specific application.
