I. CF30-PA66 Material Overview
LCF30-PA66 engineering-grade thermoplastic composite combines polyamide 66 (PA66) with 30% long carbon fiber (LCF) reinforcement. This specific formulation delivers an optimal balance of structural integrity and processing efficiency, making it particularly suitable for applications where weight reduction and performance cannot be compromised.
II. Key Properties of LCF30-PA66
1. Superior Strength and Stiffness
With a tensile strength reaching 210 MPa and a flexural modulus of 9500 MPa, it provides the robust framework needed for critical UAV Components under demanding operational stress.
2. Enhanced Fatigue Resistance
The material withstands prolonged cyclic loading, a critical factor for drone parts subjected to constant vibration, ensuring long-term operational reliability.
3. Minimal Warpage and Shrinkage
Exhibiting a low shrinkage rate of 0.3%-0.6%, it allows for the production of high-precision parts with tight tolerances, essential for complex UAV Components.
4. High Heat Deflection Temperature
A HDT of 255°C (1.82 MPa) ensures dimensional stability and performance retention in the elevated temperature environments typical near drone power systems.
5. Excellent Wear Resistance
The low coefficient of friction and high wear resistance make it ideal for moving parts like gears and bearings within unmanned aerial systems.
III. Primary Applications
The LCF30-PA66 material is extensively used in automotive, industrial machinery, and high-performance sporting goods. Its most significant impact is in the aerospace sector, particularly for manufacturing essential UAV Components such as structural frames, motor mounts, landing gear, and gimbal supports, where its strength-to-weight ratio is crucial.
IV. LCF30-PA66 in UAV Motor Mounts
The motor mount is a critical interface, connecting the propulsion unit to the airframe. It demands exceptional mechanical properties to handle thrust forces and vibrations. Thermoplastic LCF30-PA66 Material Particles are the preferred choice for injection molding these components. The resulting mounts are not only lightweight but also exhibit the high rigidity and low creep necessary to maintain precise motor alignment at high RPMs, effectively dampening vibrations and significantly enhancing overall drone durability and flight performance.

It’s important to understand that the final properties of carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastics can vary. Differences in the base polymer, the percentage and type of carbon fiber, and the manufacturing process all contribute to the performance profile. We recommend evaluating materials against your specific application requirements and comparing them with alternative composites to determine the best solution for your project.
Surface Resistivity Comparison
Conductors < 10⁵ Ω/sq. Antistatic Materials 10⁵ ~ 10¹² Ω/sq. Insulators > 10¹² Ω/sq. Static-Dissipative 10⁶ ~ 10¹¹ Ω/sq. *Key Influencing Factors Humidity: Increased moisture can reduce resistivity (e.g., in polymers). Temperature: Affects carrier mobility (↑ heat may lower semiconductor resistivity). Surface Contamination: Dust/oils alter readings significantly. Additives: Carbon black, metallic fillers can lower resistivity. *Applications Electronics: Antistatic materials (10⁶–10⁹ Ω/sq) prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Aerospace: Composites must control resistivity to avoid charge buildup. Medical Devices: Insulating materials (>10¹² Ω/sq) ensure patient safety. *Examples Polypropylene (PP): ~10¹⁶ Ω/sq (excellent insulator). Carbon Fiber Composites: 10³–10⁶ Ω/sq (static dissipation). ESD Flooring: 10⁶–10⁹ Ω/sq.
Get to Know Carbon Fibers
The table presents key performance data of carbon fiber grades. T300, with a tensile strength of 3530 MPa and a tensile modulus of 230 GPa, has a relatively low tensile elongation at break of 1.5% and a body density of 1.76 g/cm³. As the grade increases, for example, T700S shows an enhanced tensile strength of 4900 MPa compared to T300, while maintaining the same tensile modulus but with a higher elongation at break of 2.1%. T800S and T1000G both have a tensile modulus of 294 GPa, and their tensile strengths are 5880 MPa and 6370 MPa respectively. T1100G stands out with the highest tensile strength of 7000 MPa and a tensile modulus of 324 GPa. Generally, with the increase in product grade, the tensile strength and modulus tend to rise, while the density remains relatively stable around 1.8 g/cm³.
