Traditionally, many connectors of this type are produced using liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) formulated with carbon fiber. The connector company’s product development engineers established three key criteria for the polymer needed to meet the cost and performance needs of the new connector:

Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP), or carbon fiber composites, are made by combining carbon fiber with a resin, such as vinyl ester or epoxy, to create a composite material that has higher performance properties than the individual materials alone. These CFRP materials consist of thermoset continuous fiber polymer rods, bars and laminates used in a variety of applications that require superior technical characteristics.

History PET is the most common thermoplastic polymer in the polyester family. It is the same polymer resin utilized in the plastic bottle industry.
