Plastic type CF

• PA66/CF30 polyamide 66 reinforced with 30 wt% carbon fibre.
• Heat stabilized.
• Very high rigidity, excellent tensile and flexural strength, fatigue and creep resistance.
• Low friction, self lubricating properties, excellent wear and abrasion resistance.
• Good heat capability.
• Good chemical resistance (oils, grease, fuels, non-polar solvents); not resistant to strong acids, alkalis and hot water or steam.
• ESD safe material, (avoid powder attraction, sparks generation, ignition sources).
• Very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion.
• Typical applications include handling of sensitive components and devices (electronic components, micro-mechanical parts, glass and ceramic substrates, capillary, etc.).

Plastic type LR

• PPS/GF30 polyphenylene sulphide reinforced with 30 wt% glass fibre.
• Very hard, rigid, high tensile and flexural strength, creep resistance.
• High heat capability (230-260°c), good dimension stability, low thermal linear expansion coefficient.
• UL94V-0 self-extinguishing, without halogens or phosphorus; low fume optical density and toxicity.
• Excellent chemical resistance (organic solvent, oils, grease, fuels, acids and alkalis); not resistant only to hydrochloric acid and oxidizing agents, excellent resistance to thermal ageing, very low moisture absorption.
• Insulating and microwave transparent.
• Typical applications include soldering processes, handling of components in cleaning/chemical processes.
