Impact Strength: ≥ 3.0 kJ/m²
With a 10% carbon fiber content, ABS-CF10 delivers a substantial boost in mechanical properties, making it suitable for demanding applications that require higher strength and wear resistance.
Thermal and Chemical Resistance
ABS-CF10 retains the thermal and chemical stability of pure ABS, with improved resistance due to the added carbon fiber. It performs better under moderate to high temperatures and exposure to certain chemicals compared to ABS-CF5.
Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT): Approx. 110°C
Long-Term Service Temperature: Up to 110°C
Chemical Resistance: Good resistance to oils, fuels, solvents, and other chemicals
ABS-CF10 excels in environments with higher thermal and chemical stress, making it suitable for more demanding industrial and automotive applications.
Wear Resistance and Processing
ABS-CF10 shows improved wear resistance compared to ABS-CF5, with superior performance in moderate to high friction environments. It remains easy to process using standard thermoplastic methods, but it can be slightly more abrasive to processing equipment due to the higher carbon fiber content.
Wear Resistance: Significantly improved over unreinforced ABS, performs well under moderate to high friction conditions
Processing Methods: Suitable for injection molding, extrusion (may require special consideration for wear on tooling)
Its enhanced durability and processability make ABS-CF10 ideal for industrial applications that involve higher wear and mechanical stress.
Environmental Adaptability
ABS-CF10 features low moisture absorption and good dimensional stability, ensuring reliable performance in environments with temperature and humidity fluctuations. Its performance in these conditions is superior to ABS-CF5.
Water Absorption: Low
Dimensional Stability: Good, with better stability compared to lower carbon fiber reinforced materials
ABS-CF10 provides reliable performance in more challenging environmental conditions, enhancing its versatility for a wide range of applications.
Applications
ABS-CF10 is engineered for applications that require significantly improved mechanical properties, enhanced wear resistance, and better chemical stability. Common applications include:
Automotive: High-performance load-bearing components such as structural parts, trim, and housings.
Industrial Manufacturing: Heavy duty parts like electrical components, brackets, and housings that require enhanced strength and wear resistance.
Electronics: Protective covers and housings for devices subjected to mechanical stress, where increased impact resistance is needed.
Consumer Goods: Parts requiring high strength, wear resistance, and thermal stability.
