LFT-G® LGF40 PP Polymers

LFT-G® LGF40 PP Polymers

Details
LFT-G® LGF40-PP is a high-performance thermoplastic composite material consisting of a polypropylene (PP) matrix reinforced with 40% long glass fibers by weight. By preserving an internal 3D entangled network skeleton during molding, it provides superior stiffness and fatigue resistance. This composite exhibits low moisture absorption (≤0.03%), making it a stable structural alternative to materials like nylon (PA6/PA66) in automotive and industrial components.

PP LGF40 vs. Standard PP GF40 (Short Fiber)

Standard short-fiber compounds use broken glass fragments (usually <1.0 mm) that fracture easily. LFT-G® PP-LGF40 preserves glass fibers (typically 5–25 mm in the pellet, remaining several millimeters long after molding) embedded in a polypropylene matrix. The long fibers form an internal 3D entangled network skeleton during injection molding, providing superior impact resistance and fatigue resistance compared to short glass fiber alternatives.

Standard Short PP GF40

  • Average internal fiber length: less than 1.0 mm.
  • Fractures easily under dynamic impact loads.
  • High molding shrinkage causes structural warping.

LFT-G® PP LGF40 (Long Fiber)

  • Continuous fiber network (5-25mm pellet).
  • 2.5x higher impact resistance and energy absorption.
  • Low shrinkage prevents structural warp.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are you a direct manufacturer or broker?

A: We are an ISO 9001:2015 certified direct manufacturer of continuous long fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFT). Our pultrusion facility in China controls quality from polymerization to final compound pellets.

Q: Can you customize the fiber loading of PP LGF?

A: Yes. We customize long glass fiber loadings from 20% to 70%. Additionally, we compound properties for UV stabilization, UL94 V0 flame retardancy, and color-matching to pantone.

Q: What is the MOQ for custom LFT-G orders?

A: Our standard production minimum is 1,000 kg. Smaller quantities are available for structural testing and engineering verification cycles.
