Made from polypropylene and carbon fiber reinforcement, TAFNEX™ Compounds are plastic pellet materials available in multiple grades. These grades vary in fiber content and length. Learn more below.
With 20 % medium-length carbon fiber reinforcement, M2000A is an Injection Molding grade that offers ease of processing thanks to its low fiber content.
Containing 30 % medium-length carbon fibers, M3000E can be utilized in Injection Molding processes.
L4000A contains long carbon fibers, which significantly enhances the compound's mechanical performance. As the highest performing TAFNEX™ Compound grade, it is ideal for more demanding applications.
Drone blades can be mass-produced through Injection Molding of a TAFNEX™ Compound, and this process allows for the addition of special features such as leading edge serrations to minimize noise. Furthermore, TAFNEX™ UD Tape can be added on the outside for a high-performance sandwich structure.
