PPS UD Carbon Prepreg 200gsm 40% RC 380°C Melting Point 2.5J/cm3 Impact Strength
Product Spotlights
Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory – a trusted manufacturer with over 25 years of experience, established in 1998. Our PPS UD carbon prepreg is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of high-performance industries. With a 380°C melting point, 200gsm areal weight, 40% resin content, and 2.5 J/cm³ impact strength, this prepreg delivers exceptional thermal stability and mechanical toughness. As a manufacturer exporting to major markets worldwide, we ensure consistent quality and reliable supply.
Product Overview
This unidirectional carbon fiber prepreg uses PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) as the thermoplastic resin matrix, combining the lightweight strength of carbon fiber with the high-temperature resistance and chemical inertness of PPS. It is ideal for applications requiring long-term service at elevated temperatures, such as aerospace components, automotive under-hood parts, industrial machinery, and sporting goods.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Temperature Resistance: Melting point of 380°C, suitable for continuous use up to 240°C (PPS Tg ~90°C, but mechanical properties retained at high temps).
- Excellent Impact Strength: 2.5 J/cm³ ensures durability under dynamic loads, reducing risk of delamination or cracking.
- Optimized Resin Content: 40% RC provides balanced fiber-to-resin ratio for good wet-out and mechanical performance.
- Unidirectional Orientation: Maximizes strength and stiffness along the fiber direction, ideal for structural applications.
- Lightweight: 200gsm areal weight allows for thin, lightweight laminates with high specific strength.
- Chemical & Flame Resistance: PPS resists most solvents, acids, and bases, and is inherently flame retardant (UL94 V-0).
- Easy Processing: Suitable for compression molding, autoclave, or vacuum bagging; requires no refrigeration (stable at room temperature).

Processing Guidelines
This prepreg can be processed via compression molding at 320–350°C and 5–10 bar pressure. Typical dwell time: 5–10 minutes. For autoclave or vacuum bagging, use a heating rate of 2–5°C/min and cool under pressure below 200°C. No post-cure required. The material is stable at room temperature, eliminating the need for cold storage, which reduces logistics costs.
Typical Applications
- Aerospace interiors and structural components (e.g., brackets, clips, panels)
- Automotive engine components, battery housings, and lightweight body parts
- Industrial machinery parts requiring high stiffness and temperature resistance
- Sports equipment such as frames, shafts, and paddles
- Oil & gas and chemical processing equipment (corrosion-resistant)

FAQ
-
What is the shelf life of this prepreg?
At room temperature (25°C), the tack life exceeds 6 months. For longer storage, keep in a cool, dry place protected from direct sunlight. -
Can I use this prepreg with other reinforcement fibers?
This product is specifically designed for carbon fiber. For other fiber types, please contact us for custom formulations. -
What width and roll length are available?
Standard width is 300mm, 600mm, or 1000mm (customizable). Roll length depends on width; typically 50–100 meters per roll. Please inquire for specifics. -
Do you offer samples for testing?
Yes, we provide small sample sheets (e.g., 300×300mm) for evaluation. Shipping costs may apply. -
Is this prepreg compatible with vacuum bagging?
Yes, it can be processed with vacuum bagging using a suitable release film and breather. The thermoplastic resin requires higher temperature, so ensure your bagging materials can withstand 350°C. -
What is the minimum order quantity?
MOQ is typically 10 kg for standard products, but we can accommodate smaller orders for trial purposes. -
Do you provide technical support for processing?
Absolutely. Our team can offer guidance on mold design, cycle parameters, and troubleshooting. Contact us with your specific process. -
Can this prepreg be used for continuous fiber 3D printing?
It is not designed for filament extrusion. For 3D printing, we recommend our PPS/carbon fiber filament products (available separately).
