Electrical & Electronics
Xydar® LCP displays outstanding strength at extreme temperatures, inherent flame retardance, exceptional chemical resistance, and transparency to microwave radiation.
Xydar® LCP also displays low moisture absorption and excellent dielectric performance, which make it an ideal material candidate for flexible printed circuits (FPCs), antenna substrates and housings.
Syensqo’s Xydar® LCP is a liquid crystal polymer specially designed to reduce dielectric loss. Due to its low moisture absorption and outstanding flow properties, this high-performance resin is the optimal material choice for 5G antenna substrates and housings. Additionally, Xydar® LCP offers long-lasting strength and performance at extremely high temperatures delivering exceptional longevity and reliability even in the most complex and challenging environments.
Coatings
Thanks to its exceptional performance with respect to electrical, thermal, mechanical and chemical properties, Xydar® LCP is the perfect match for technically demanding high-frequency applications. Due to its thermoplastic characteristics, it can be thermoformed into films and meets stringent specifications for high temperature and specific requirements for strength, thermal conductivity, and dielectric properties. These properties, together with dimensional stability and resistance to moisture absorption, make Xydar® LCP the material of choice when looking for Polymer Printed Circuit Board resin. Xydar® LCP is available in pellet, powder grades which can be utilized for a wide range of applications, including flat films, next-generation high-speed connectors, etc.
Automotive
In the automotive market, Xydar® LCP has a long history of operating at high temperatures in applications such as lighting, sensors, and connectors. LCPs are well suited for lighting systems in components such as lamp sockets, fog lamp bezels, and reflectors. Xydar® LCP can operate at 240°C (464°F) while providing excellent dimensional stability and resist outgassing in lighting systems. The increased use of automotive electrification also requires the use of LCPs in electrical components such as sensors, solenoids, and connectors. With the ability to be molded into thin-walled parts, Xydar® LCP is well suited for the trend in miniaturization. Combining superior electrical properties with thermal performance, Xydar® LCP enables greater copper slot fill in motor applications which improves the performance of the motor, while also providing the opportunity to downsize the motor thereby increasing packaging space.
