LFT-G® LGF40 PPS Pellets

40%Long Glass Fiber Reinforced PPS LGF40

Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a high-performance thermoplastic polymer that offers excellent thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. It has a high-level of crystallinity, which gives it outstanding stiffness and strength as well as excellent dimensional stability. PPS can be reinforced with various materials to further improve its properties. One popular approach is to add long glass fibers (LGF) to PPS resin, creating PPS LGF30 polymer with exceptional properties.

What is PPS LGF40 ?

LFT-G® LGF40 PPS is 40% long glass fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) thermoplastic composite material. The term "LGF40" refers to the percentage of fiber content in the composite, which is typically about 40% by weight. This level of reinforcement leads to significant enhancements in several key properties, including stre

What are the Benefits of PPS LGF40?

PPS LGF40 polymer offers several benefits, making it an ideal material for demanding applications. 
 

1. High Strength and Stiffness: PPS LGF30 polymer has exceptional mechanical properties, offering high tensile, flexural, and compressive strength and stiffness. The long glass fibers function as a reinforcement, providing better load-bearing capability and making the material more resistant to deformation and creep.
2. High-Temperature Resistance: PPS LGF30 polymer can withstand high temperatures without losing its mechanical properties. It has a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of around 90 degree and can be exposed to temperatures up to 240 degree in continuous use.
3. Low Moisture Absorption: PPS LGF30 polymer also has low moisture absorption, meaning it won't become brittle or weaken over time due to exposure to moisture.

4. Good Electrical Insulation: PPS LGF30 polymer has excellent electrical insulation properties, making it a suitable material for electrical and electronic applications.
