Tensile strength up to 420 MPa and tensile modulus up to 50 GPa. Ultra-high strength injection molding plastic material.
LUVOCOM XCF is a special carbon fiber reinforced compound material known as "eXtra Carbon Fiber" developed by the German company Lehvoss. It achieves a tensile strength of up to 420 MPa and a tensile modulus of up to 50 GPa, exhibiting excellent impact strength, making it a very high-strength and high-rigidity thermoplastic resin material. It has low thermal expansion, resulting in excellent dimensional accuracy. Due to these characteristics, it can be widely used as a metal alternative or as a substitute for CFRP/GFRP, where high mechanical properties are required, and it is expected to provide weight reduction and cost-saving benefits. On the other hand, it is also possible to aim for further weight reduction by using it instead of glass short fiber or glass long fiber reinforced resins. The specific gravity of carbon fiber is about 1.8, which is lower than that of glass fiber at about 2.5, and the amount of fiber needed to achieve similar mechanical properties is less, allowing for a weight reduction of up to about 30% compared to using glass fiber reinforced resin. By using materials with a smaller amount of fiber, moldability improves, and design freedom increases.
