Liquid Crystal Polymers are witnessing wide range of applications as Industry Leaders in Japan Develop Novel LCP Products
Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) are a category of aromatic polymers that are extremely inert and unreactive and also highly resistant to fire. LCPs are mainly useful in mechanical and electrical parts, food containers, and also other applications where chemical inertness is necessary. They are also used in plug connectors, transmission system components, lamp sockets, pump sockets, and sunlight sensors. The most recent technology to emerge as one of the most sought after polymeric materials is the LCD or Liquid Crystal Display.
This technology is now used in almost every commercial production process from the initial manufacturing stage right through to the final display unit of an electronic display.Liquid crystal polymers are currently used in the construction industry and are widely available as a wide range of goods. Polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyimide are popular building material which use these compounds to make various products including insulation, plastic, insulating fiber board, thermoplastic, PVC, etc. and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is used in the manufacturing of some water bottles. The medical applications for polymer substances are also very exciting. They are being used in a wide variety of procedures and research. These types of polymers can be used in the development of a number of new drugs that could help to prevent, fight, and cure many forms of cancer. Some of the most promising polymers are also being used in the development of implants for patients who have lost a leg or arm and who have had to replace it with a prosthetic limb.
Polymer films are now used in all sorts of different industries and processes, including computer chip manufacture, automotive and aerospace applications, and biomedical devices, and the production of non-porous plastic parts and components. Polymer films are also being used in some areas such as aerospace, where they are being used to make high quality, durable, and very rugged components for satellite dishes, radios, and aircraft instruments. Key industry leaders in Japan have developed new liquid crystal polymers that help to minimize signal loss.
