Exceptional Mechanical Retention at High Temperatures, Excellent Impact and Crash Resistance and Superior Dimensional Stability
XencorTM LFT are a family of long-fiber reinforced structural thermoplastics strategically developed as the material of choice for metal replacement and semi-structural applications. Formulated with specialty polymers, XencorTM LFT compounds deliver a new standard of performance with outstanding stiffness, unrivaled impact resistance, extremely low creep and optimal processing flexibility.
XencorTM LFT (long fiber thermoplastics) are designed to provide maximum synergy between performance, design flexibility, function integration, weight reduction and cost-efficiency per part. With exceptional mechanical retention at high temperatures, excellent impact and crash resistance and superior dimensional stability, XencorTM LFT offers improved thermal-mechanical performance compared to traditional short-fiber plastics.
Xencor™ long fiber compounds are created using a pultrusion process, where continuous reinforcement fiber strands are impregnated with plastic resin and trimmed to the targeted granulate length of typically 7 to 9 mm. These materials are reinforced with glass fibers, with lengths corresponding to the granulate length. Characteristics and properties found across the product line include:
XencorTM LFT are perfectly designed for metal replacement in the most demanding components and applications in the automotive industry, thanks to their unique combination of performance and processing properties. This family of long-fiber thermoplastics empowers automotive component OEMs with a variety of high-performance solutions for structural, powertrain, electrification and thermal management environments where high stability, strength and corrosion resistance, lightweighting, and design freedom are crucial.
