Facing-CFRT Sheets

CFRT表皮组成

CFRT (Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic) is a high-performance composite material. It is composed of continuous unidirectional fibers (such as glass or carbon fiber) and a thermoplastic matrix (e.g., PP, PA, PPS) combined via a specialized impregnation process. It retains the high strength and modulus of the reinforcing fibers while incorporating the high toughness and recyclability of the thermoplastic polymer. Thanks to its continuous fiber structure and thorough resin impregnation, CFRT exhibits far superior mechanical properties to discontinuous fiber composites like GMT and LFT. It is typically supplied as a prepreg tape and can be processed using rapid hot-pressing techniques, finding broad applications in automotive, transportation, and sports equipment industries.

Core-Polypropylene honeycomb

通孔蜂窝芯

The PP honeycomb core is fundamental to the sandwich structure, leveraging a combination of the polypropylene material's properties and the honeycomb geometry. This results in a lightweight, high-strength core with outstanding impact resistance, energy absorption, sound and thermal insulation, chemical resistance, moisture protection, and vibration damping capabilities.

Core Advantages of PP Thermoplastic Honeycomb

Ultimate Light weighting

Extremely low density for significant weight reduction.

High Strength & Stiffness

Exceptional strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios; performance rivals metal when composited.

Superior Impact Resistance

Excellent toughness and energy absorption; deforms to absorb impact rather than fracturing.

Fully Recyclable

100% thermoplastic, allowing for repeated reprocessing and full alignment with circular economy goals.

Easy Processing

Can be thermoformed into complex shapes, and is easy to cut and join, offering high design freedom.

Chemical & Thermal Insulation

Resistant to chemicals and moisture, with good sound and thermal insulation properties.
