LCP RTP Jan-87Use performance

I. Overview LCP is a class with the outstanding performance of the new type of polymer. LCP is a wide range and a class of materials: a lyotropic liquid crystal: processing solution; b thermotropic liquid crystal: processing in the molten state.

Initially the liquid crystal polymer is industrialized U.S. Dupont company developed lyotropic poly p-phenylene terephthalamide (Kevlar ®). Polymers of this type can only be processed in solution, not melt, can only use for fibers and coatings.

LCP Characteristics and Applications

1, features: a, LCP has a self-reinforcing nature abnormal structured fibrous structural features, thus enhanced LCD mechanical strength in the tens of percent glass fiber reinforced plastic can achieve even more than ordinary plastic the level of the modulus. If with glass fiber, carbon fiber reinforced, much higher than other engineering plastics. b, a liquid crystal polymer having excellent thermal stability, heat resistance and chemical resistance, and wear, less wear resistance are excellent in the creep characteristics of most plastics. c, LCP, weather resistance, resistance to radiation, having excellent flame retardancy, and to extinguish the flames and combustion no longer proceed.

2, application: a printed circuit board, electronic components of satellites, jet engine parts, automotive machinery parts, medical
