Industry News ► Polyplastics Co., Ltd. www.polyplastics.com 原 产 于 日 本 和 中 国 台 湾 地 区 的 LAPEROS®液晶聚合物坐拥20,000吨产 量和34%的全球市场份额（根据Fuji Kei- zai 2025报道）。高性能材料长期以来为 电子元件领域的进步发展做重要支撑。 LAPEROS®液晶聚合物具有卓越的机 械强度，耐热性和线膨胀系数表现，广泛 运用于下一代高速传输场景，比如智能手 机和平板设备的超薄微间距连接器。 Expansion Polyplastics Group, a global leader in engineering thermoplastics, has ex- panded its LAPEROS ® liquid crystal polymer (LCP) product line with the launch of the new LH and TF series materials which meet the electronics market's growing demand for higher performance and miniaturization. These new LCP series grades will ac- celerate expansion into a broader range of applications and next-gene- ration product development through two distinct approaches: versatility in meeting diverse design needs and high flowability. The LH series has very well-balanc- ed performance, combining flowabi- lity, mechanical properties, and heat resistance. The materials’ adaptability allows them to accommodate a broad range of product designs, making them suitable for various electronic component applications. The TF series is engineered for ex- ceptional fluidity for better molding of complex geometries found in smart- phones and precision electronic com- ponents. While maximizing flowability, the TF series also maintains excellent mechanical properties and a flexible molding window, providing materials that support miniaturization and high-density integration in electronic devices. Polyplastics is leveraging Materials Informatics methods that utilize AI and data analysis to streamline mate- rials development. By analyzing ex- tensive material data accumulated over many years, the company deriv- es optimal properties, enabling shor- ter development cycles and highly precise designs. Produced in the Japan and Taiwan region, LAPEROS® LCP has an annual production capacity of 20,000 tons and holds a 34% share of the global market (according to Fuji Keizai 2025 report). The high-performance mate- rial has long supported advancements in the electronic components sector. LAPEROS ® LCP’s exceptional proper- ties, including mechanical strength, heat resistance, and coefficient of li- near thermal expansion, are driving its adoption in next-generation, high- speed transmission uses, such as ultra-thin, fine-pitch connectors for smartphones and tablet devices.
