Liquid crystal polymers (LCP) exhibit a highly ordered structure in both liquid and solid states. LCP can replace materials such as ceramics, metals, composites, and other plastics, owing to properties such as outstanding strength at extreme temperatures and resistance to virtually all chemicals. Processing of LCPs include various operations such as fiber spinning, extrusion, film casting, thermoforming, injection, compression, and blow molding. Injection molding and extrusion are two dominant processing operations. Global demand for liquid crystal polymer is expected to increase over the forecast period, owing to their application in various industries such as automotive, electrical & electronics, industrial, consumer appliances, medical, aerospace, and bakeware.
