In recent years, what new materials have come into use in the automotive interior, or in the future?
At present, LFT has become a new lightweight material for automobile which can challenge aluminum alloy and fiber reinforced thermosetting composites, and has a strong market competitiveness. According to reports, in recent years, the use of LFT made automotive products market share increased by about 15%, and maintain a strong upward trend, this phenomenon has aroused great concern among professionals in the industry.
In the past 20 years, the energy crisis and the rise in oil prices prompted the automobile lightweight gradually become the development trend of the new car, but also makes people to pay attention to the development of LFT low density material, LFT material properties and processing technology has also been improved.
LFT is a kind of advanced fiber reinforced lightweight materials in the field, with design, low density, high specific strength, high specific modulus and strong impact resistance and other characteristics, it appears to Aluminum Alloy, fiber reinforced thermoset composites poses huge challenges, and gradually become the mainstream material production of auto parts.LFT Long-Fiber Reinforce is English Thermoplastic, Chinese for long fiber reinforced thermoplastic plastics, used to call the long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites, it is a kind of advanced fiber reinforced lightweight polymer material field.
