LCP Compounds
Material overview
Liquid crystal polymer is a specialty engineering thermoplastic for precision components. Its combination of high flowability, heat resistance, dimensional accuracy and low moisture absorption makes it well suited to compact, thin-wall electrical and electronic parts that must withstand demanding molding and assembly conditions.
Key properties
-
High flowability for thin-wall and complex geometries.
-
Low molding shrinkage and excellent dimensional accuracy.
-
Low warpage for precision components and fine-pitch connectors.
-
Short molding cycles for high-productivity precision injection molding.
-
Excellent heat resistance, including grades designed for high-temperature assembly processes.
-
High strength and stiffness.
-
Very low water absorption and stable performance in humid environments.
-
Good electrical insulation and flame-retardant performance.
Typical applications
-
Electrical connectors and sockets
-
Relays and coil bobbins
-
Sensors
-
Miniature electronic components
-
Automotive electronics
