LCP, Liquid Crystal Polyester
Vectran™ is a high-modulus, aromatic polyester that is 5 times stronger than steel and exhibits great abrasion resistance and virtually zero creep. Unlike conventional thermoplastics, Vectran™ crystallises prior to extrusion, which dramatically increases fibre crystallinity. Amongst others, this increased crystallinity provides Vectran™ with its high tenacity and creep-resistant properties.
