Product Description

PolyMide™ PA12-CF is a carbon fiber reinforced PA12 (Nylon 12) filament. Thanks to the low moisture sensitivity of PA12, this product features outstanding mechanical and thermal properties even after the moisture conditioning process. Combined with its ease of print with Warp-Free™ technology, this product is ideal to create manufacturing tools.

PolyMide™ PA12-CF absorbs moisture slowly over time. The estimated equilibrium water absorption is around 1.5%.

Printing Recommendations

  • Abrasion of the brass nozzle happens frequently when printing PolyMide™ PA12-CF. Normally, the life of a brass nozzle would be approximately 9h. A wear-resistance nozzle, such as hardened steel and ruby nozzle, is highly recommended to be used with PolyMide™ PA12-CF.
  • If PolyMide™ PA12-CF is used as the support material for itself, please remove the support structure before excessive moisture absorption. Otherwise, the support structure can be permanently bonded to the model.
  • After the printing process, it is recommended to anneal the model in the oven at 80°C for 6 hours.
