Carbon fiber reinforced nylon (carbon fiber reinforced polyamide) can be used as 3D printing filament. Local companies are enthusiastic about research and development.

Carbon fiber reinforced nylon, also known as carbon fiber reinforced polyamide, refers to a composite material made of carbon fiber or carbon fiber fabric as reinforcement and nylon resin as matrix. Carbon fiber reinforced nylon has the advantages of wear resistance, high tensile strength, corrosion resistance, creep resistance, lightweight, good electrical conductivity, and good thermal conductivity. It is widely used in national defense industry, automobile manufacturing, medical equipment, 3D printing, aerospace, etc. The field has broad application prospects.

The main raw materials of carbon fiber reinforced nylon include carbon fiber and nylon resin. Nylon resin, also known as polyamide resin, has the advantages of fatigue resistance and high mechanical strength, and is one of the most widely used engineering plastics. Nylon 66, also known as polyhexamethylene adipamide, is the most widely used nylon product in the world. Compared with traditional nylon 66, carbon fiber reinforced nylon 66 has improved in bending modulus, elongation at break, tensile strength, etc., and has now become the mainstream of the carbon fiber reinforced nylon market.

According to different base materials, carbon fiber reinforced matrix composite materials can be subdivided into four types: carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composite materials, carbon fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composite materials, carbon fiber reinforced metal matrix composite materials and carbon/carbon composite materials. Among them, carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composite materials A mainstream product in the market. Carbon fiber reinforced nylon is a carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composite material with excellent comprehensive properties and broad application prospects in many fields.

According to the “2023-2028 China Carbon Fiber Reinforced Nylon (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polyamide) Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report》shows that defense industry, automobile manufacturing, medical equipment, 3D printing, aerospace and other fields are the main demand ends for carbon fiber reinforced nylon. In the field of 3D printing, carbon fiber reinforced nylon is used as a printing filament with excellent damping and wear resistance. It can be used to manufacture automobile structural parts and will replace some metal parts in the future. Driven by market demand, the prosperity of my country’s carbon fiber reinforced nylon industry will continue to increase.

The main manufacturers of carbon fiber reinforced nylon in my country include Cathay Biotechnology, Dingxin Carbon Materials, Sinochem Technology, Kunshan Refus New Materials, Taisu New Materials, etc. Cathay Biotech is my country’s leading bio-manufacturing company and has a number of bio-based material invention patents. Currently, the company is actively promoting the research and development of carbon fiber-reinforced bio-based polyamide thermoplastic composite materials. The products will be widely used in wind power generation and transportation logistics in the future. , building materials and other fields.

Industry analysts said that carbon fiber reinforced nylon, as a carbon fiber reinforced resin-based composite material, has broad application prospects in the field of 3D printing. In the future, as the development of downstream industries accelerates, my country’s carbon fiber reinforced nylon market space will further expand. At present, carbon fiber reinforced nylon 66 is the mainstream product in my country’s carbon fiber reinforced nylon market. It is expected that in the future, as local companies continue to exert their efforts, my country’s carbon fiber reinforced nylon industry will gradually develop in a high-quality and green direction.
