LFT-G® PP LGF30 | The High-Performance Upgrade to PP GF30
Product Description & Features
LFT-G® PP LGF30 -NG03 is a 30% long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composite. Engineers searching for standard 'PP GF30' value its good stiffness-to-cost ratio. LFT-G® PP LGF30 is the professional upgrade, designed to solve the common failures of short-fiber materials: poor impact strength and long-term creep.
Unlike standard short fiber (SGF) materials, the long fibers in LFT-PP form an internal "skeletal network" within the molded part. This structure is key to delivering superior performance in:
- √ Balanced Performance: The ideal "workhorse" grade, offering an excellent combination of high stiffness and exceptional toughness.
- √ Superior Impact Strength: The long-fiber network arrests crack propagation, providing 2-3 times the impact resistance of SGF PP GF30, especially at low temperatures.
- √ Long-Term Creep Resistance: Maintains its shape under constant load and heat, making it reliable for true structural applications where SGF would fail.

Processing Information
The following values are recommendations. We recommend desiccant / dry air dryers (moisture content below 0.1%).
To minimize fiber breakage and ensure optimal performance, a low-compression, general-purpose screw is highly recommended.

| Drying Temperature | 80 - 100 °C |
| Drying Time | 2 - 4 hours |
| Melt Temperature (Nozzle ③) | 220 - 250 °C |
| Mold Temperature (Zone ②) | 40 - 70 °C |
| Back Pressure | Low (to minimize fiber damage) |
