Nylon Composite Plastics with High Strength (Replacing Steel with Plastics) Successfully Developed by  NFD

 

In recent years, automobile lightweight has been one of the most concerned problems of major automobile manufacturers. Especially with the popularization of new energy vehicles in the world, automobile lightweight has put forward higher requirements. Engineers try to reduce the body weight. In this context, the research and development of new composite materials was initiated by the researchers of NFD. After unremitting efforts, the new special modified nylon Hepla® H9000 series composites were successfully developed.

 

Compared with ordinary nylon 66, the new composite nylon material has higher strength, rigid modulus, outstanding creep resistance, good dimensional stability, thermal stability and other characteristics. At the same time,Hepla® H9000 series composite materials have super high fluidity, can fill up to 70% glass fiber, even if the glass fiber filling up to 60%, can produce products with good surface quality.

 

Hepla® H9000 series materials are very suitable for high strength structural components, high strength mechanical components, high temperature environment and other working conditions in the automotive industry.

 

 

Compared with metal, Hepla® H9000 has the advantages of flexible design, easy dyeing and decoration, in-die decoration, reduced assembly, reduced cost, reduced secondary assembly, improved integrity, low noise, good surface tactile, low weight, insulation, shock absorption, corrosion resistance and long service life.

 

 

The density of plastics is usually between 0.9 and 1.5. The density of Hepla® H9000 is higher than that of common metals.

 

 

The tensile strength and rigidity of reinforced engineering plastics have been greatly improved, which can replace some metal parts and improve the lightweight level of automobiles.

 

 

Comparisons of creep resistance of Hepla® H9000 with zinc and copper alloys:

 

 

Comparing with other aromatic nylons, the water absorption of Hepla® H9000 was tested according to ISO 62 standard.

 

 

Compared with the common metal thermal expansion coefficient (CLTE), the material of Hepla® H9000 has the characteristics of low anisotropy and low warpage.

 

 

Hepla® H9000 series, with its outstanding comprehensive performance advantages, can completely replace metals and provide more possibilities for product weight reduction. As a manufacturer of specially modified plastics, NFD will continue to provide customers with high performance plastics solutions. Eliminating difficult problems for customers is the goal that NFD always pursues. If you have problems, just find NFD!
