Xiamen Baekeland High Performance Modified LCF (Long Carbon Fiber Thermoplastic) for Aerospace, Automotive & Structural Components
Xiamen Baekeland Modified LCF (Long Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic) is a premium-grade composite material made by reinforcing high-performance thermoplastic matrices (e.g., PA6, PA66, PP, PEEK, PPS) with long carbon fibers (typically 6–25mm). It offers exceptional stiffness, ultra-lightweight properties, dimensional stability, and excellent fatigue resistance, making it ideal for aerospace parts, high-end automotive components, sports equipment, and structural reinforcements.
Key Features
Ultra-High Stiffness & Strength – Carbon fibers significantly outperform glass fibers in tensile and flexural properties.
Lightweight – Offers up to 40% weight savings compared to metals with similar performance.
Thermal & Dimensional Stability – Operates at elevated temperatures with low thermal expansion.
Excellent Fatigue and Creep Resistance – Ideal for long-term structural applications under stress.
Low Warpage – Ideal for tight-tolerance parts requiring precision and stability.
Good Chemical Resistance – Withstands most fuels, oils, and industrial solvents.
