LFT-G® PA66 30%LCF-BC03B Composite

PA66, or polyamide 66,nylon66 is a thermoplastic material that is widely used for different industries such as automotive, electrical and electronics, aerospace, and consumer goods. Nylon66 popularity can be attributed to its excellent mechanical properties, high-temperature resistance, and chemical resistance. PA66 is also known for its good dimensional stability and low friction coefficient, making it an ideal material for parts that require high precision and low wear.

What Is PA66 LCF30?

 

What Is PA66 LCF30? LFT-G® PA66 30%LCF is a popular composite material that is widely used in the automotive industry, particularly in the production of structural parts such as the body, chassis, and suspension. Its high strength and stiffness make it an ideal material for these applications, as it can withstand high loads and stresses without deforming or breaking. Additionally, its lightweight characteristic helps reduce the weight of the vehicle, which leads to better fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.

 

 

Properties of PA66 LCF30 composite

The properties of PA66 LCF30 composite can be considered superior to those of the unfilled PA66. Here are the properties that make it stand out as a high-performance material:

1. Increased stiffness and strength: The incorporation of LCF into PA66 improves the strength, specifically the flexural and tensile strength, and stiffness of the composite. PA66 LCF30 composite exhibits a flexural modulus ranging from 13 to 16 GPa and a tensile modulus of 16-20 GPa.

2. Fatigue and Creep Resistance: PA66 LCF30 composite exhibits excellent fatigue and creep resistance due to its higher stiffness and strength compared to unfilled PA66, providing better durability in cyclic loading applications.

Applications of PA66 LCF30 composite:

Apart from the automotive industry, PA66 30%LCF is also used in other industries that require strong and lightweight materials. For example, it is used in the production of sporting goods such as snowboards and racing bikes, where its high strength-to-weight ratio is highly prized. It is also used in the production of consumer goods such as luggage and backpacks, where its durability and lightweight characteristic provide great benefits to the user.
