TDI - CF Carbofib Material Data Sheet

TECHNICAL DATA SHEET: Engineering Plastic Type CF

General Notes:

PA66/CF30 polyamide 66 reinforced with 30 wt% carbon fiber heat stabilized
Very high rigidity, excellent tensile and flexural strength, fatigue and creep resistance
Low friction, self lubricating properties, excellent wear and abrasion resistance
Good heat capability
Good chemical resistance (oils, grease, fuels, non polar solvents); not resistant to strong acids, alkalis and hot water or steam
ESD Safe Material, very low surface resistivity
Very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion
Typical applications include handling and positioning of electronic components and devices, where an optimal balance between stiffness and surface smooth is required
