Lightweight and high strength
The relative density is between 1.5 and 2.0, which is only 1/4 to 1/5 of carbon steel. However, the tensile strength is close to or even exceeds carbon steel, and the specific strength can be compared with high-grade alloy steel. Therefore, it has excellent results in aviation, rockets, spacecraft, high-pressure vessels and other products that need to reduce their own weight. The tensile, bending and compressive strength of some epoxy FRP can reach more than 400Mpa.
Preservative
FRP is a good corrosion-resistant material and has good resistance to the atmosphere, water, general concentrations of acids, alkalis, salts, and various oils and solvents. It has been applied to all aspects of chemical anti-corrosion and is replacing carbon steel, stainless steel, wood, non-ferrous metals, etc.
Good electrical performance
It is an excellent insulating material and is used to make insulators. Good dielectric properties can still be protected at high frequencies. It has good microwave permeability and has been widely used in radar radomes.
Good thermal performance
The thermal conductivity of FRP is low, 1.25~1.67kJ/(m·h·K) at room temperature, which is only 1/100~1/1000 of metal. It is an excellent thermal insulation material. Under instantaneous ultra-high temperature conditions, it is an ideal thermal protection and ablation-resistant material, which can protect spacecraft from being washed away by high-speed airflow at temperatures above 2000°C.
Good designability
(1) Various structural products can be flexibly designed according to needs to meet the use requirements, which can make the product have good integrity.
(2) Materials can be fully selected to meet the performance of the product. For example, materials can be designed to be corrosion-resistant, resistant to instantaneous high temperatures, have particularly high strength in a certain direction of the product, have good dielectric properties, etc.
Excellent workmanship
(1) The molding process can be flexibly selected according to the shape, technical requirements, use and quantity of the product.
(2) The process is simple, can be formed in one go, and has outstanding economic effects. Especially for products with complex shapes and small quantities that are difficult to form, its process superiority is highlighted.
