CFRTP VERSUS CFRP
1. CFRTP demonstrates significantly faster processing time (5 minutes) compared to CFRP (45 minutes), representing a 90% reduction in manufacturing duration. 2. In terms of recyclability, CFRTP outperforms CFRP by a large margin, scoring 9 on a 1-10 scale versus CFRP's score of 2. 3. CFRTP exhibits superior impact resistance (90 kJ/m²) compared to CFRP (65 kJ/m²), showing approximately 38% better performance in this category. 4. While CFRP has higher temperature resistance (220°C) than CFRTP (180°C), both materials maintain adequate thermal performance for most applications. 5. CFRTP offers greater design flexibility (rating of 90) compared to CFRP (rating of 60), providing more versatility in manufacturing and application scenarios.
CFRTP VS. METALS
1. CFRTP exhibits the lowest density (1.50 g/cm³) among all compared materials, significantly outperforming traditional metals like steel (7.85 g/cm³) and copper (8.96 g/cm³), and even surpassing aluminum (2.70 g/cm³) and aluminum alloy (2.80 g/cm³). 2. In terms of strength-to-weight ratio, CFRTP demonstrates superior performance at 120 kN·m/kg, more than doubling the ratio of aluminum alloy (68 kN·m/kg) and far exceeding steel (26 kN·m/kg) and copper (14 kN·m/kg). 3. While steel shows the highest stiffness (200 GPa), CFRTP (150 GPa) outperforms aluminum (70 GPa), aluminum alloy (72 GPa), and copper (110 GPa), offering a favorable balance of rigidity and lightweight properties. 4. CFRTP achieves the highest corrosion resistance rating (9 on a 1-10 scale), surpassing all other materials including aluminum alloy (8), aluminum (7), copper (6), and steel (3), making it ideal for corrosive environments.
