    Vectran® LCP Resistance Guide

    Vectran® LCP fiber offers exceptional resistance to abrasion, making it ideal for applications where contact with rough surfaces or high friction is common. Its robust chemical resistance enables it to withstand exposure to various corrosive substances, expanding its versatility across different industries. Additionally, Vectran LCP fiber exhibits low moisture regain, making it highly resistant to moisture absorption and maintaining its mechanical properties even in humid environments.  It does however degrade and discolor in extended UV exposure.

    This fiber will degrade with long term exposure to UV light. The fibers will brown and weaken. Please keep this fiber stored away in a dark room and in the UV protective bag the fiber was shipped in.

    Acid: Excellent resistant to most acids
    Alkali: Good resistance to most alkalis
    Organic Solvent: Generally compatible with a variety of organic solvents.

    Continuous Operating Temperature Range (°C): -130 to 200
    Short Term Exposure (°C): 220 - 250
    Melt Temperature (°C): 330

    Suggested Applications

    • Composite Reinforcement
    • High Strength Concrete
    • Filtration Systems
