SIGRAFIL®Information C30 T050 TP1 Technische The New 50k Carbon Fiber for Thermoplastic Applications SIGRAFIL C30 T050 TP1 is a 50k carbon fiber tow for continuous carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics. Thanks to a tailor-made sizing system, the high level of stability and strength of the carbon fiber can be transferred in its entirety to the components with thermoplastic matrix. The carbon fiber tow is specially designed for a high interface performance to thermoplastic matrices. The carbon fiber tow has a good spreading behavior for textile processes and can be used for several thermoplastic production process chains. Mechanical performance driven by sizing technology ( values for PA-6 matrix) Bending strength 90° [MPa] 113 Applications P Unidirectional textiles P Thermoplastic tapes and organic sheets P Long fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFT´s) P Hybrid yarns 55 Standard sizing Key benefits High tensile strength P Excellent mechanical performance in thermoplastic matrices P Very good impregnation behavior in several thermoplastic processes P Low levels of twist/false twist P Good spreading behavior P Low areal weight achievable P Ease of handling in textile processing P Customized sizing for thermoplastic composites Broad Base.
