What is LCP? – A Representative of High-Performance Engineering Plastics
As the demand for high-performance materials continues to grow, LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) has emerged as an indispensable material in advanced manufacturing. Known for its outstanding combination of properties, LCP is widely used in industries such as electronics, electrical engineering, automotive, telecommunications, and medical technology. It is often referred to as the "next-generation high-performance engineering plastic."
Key Characteristics of LCP
LCP is a type of thermotropic liquid crystal polymer, meaning its molecular chains maintain a degree of ordered alignment even in the molten state. This unique structure gives LCP a wide range of exceptional properties:
  • High Thermal Resistance
Heat deflection temperature typically exceeds 260°C, making it suitable for reflow soldering processes.
  • High Strength and Rigidity
Excellent mechanical properties that remain stable even under high-temperature conditions.
  • Outstanding Dimensional Stability
Very low shrinkage, minimal deformation—ideal for high-precision mold designs.
  • Superior Electrical Performance
Low dielectric constant and low dissipation factor, perfect for high-frequency and high-speed electronic components.
  • Excellent Chemical Resistance
Stable in harsh chemical environments, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.
  • Processability
Short molding cycles and good flowability, ideal for manufacturing micro-sized precision parts.
Main Application Areas
Thanks to these superior properties, LCP is widely used in the following sectors:
Connectors and Plugs
Especially for high-speed and high-frequency components such as Type-C, HDMI, automotive radar connectors, etc.
