The Xencor™ family of long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) are innovative, long-fiber reinforced structural products that target challenging metal replacement applications and semi-structural applications. The Xencor™ compounds are designed specifically to achieve maximum synergy between high performance, design freedom, function integration, weight reduction, and per-part cost economy through fast cycle times. The function of LFTs is to create, during the injection molding process, a unique 3D entangled long fiber network inside the molded part. This fiber network forms a strong fiber skeleton, which ensures optimal dimensional stability and significantly improves the thermal-mechanical properties compared to traditional highly filled short-fiber plastics.
