Raise3D Industrial PPA CF Filament Black

Raise3D Industrial PPA CF Filament

Raise3D Industrial PPA CF Filament is a carbon fiber-reinforced composite filament material based on PPA (polyphthalamide or high-performance/high-temperature Nylon). Thanks to its high-performance Nylon matrix, this composite filament has superior mechanical and thermal properties when compared to other Nylon filaments. With well controlled dispersion and length-distribution of chopped carbon fibers (15 wt.%), PPA CF has lower density, lower moisture absorption, high strength and rigidity, high wear and creep resistance, and excellent chemical and heat resistance. It is promising for end-use applications in the automotive, aerospace, electrical and electronics (E&E) industries.

Color: Black (PMS: Black 7C)
Specifications: 1.75 mm/ 1 kg

*Due to the higher fiber content of PPA filaments, when printing PPA CF and PPA GF, an extra wear-resistant nozzle and extrusion system are required for a consistent printing performance.

Note 1. Abrasion of the brass nozzle happens frequently when printing PPA CF. Using abrasion resistance nozzle, as hardened steel and above grade nozzle is highly recommended. 2. Please dry the filament at 80-100C for 6-12 hours to restore the printing quality of Raise3D Industrial PPA CF. 3. After drying, we recommend to store PPA CF filament into Raise3D Filament Dry Box during the printing. 4. After the printing, it is recommended to anneal the printed part at 80-100C for 8 hours. 5. After annealing, max. 0.5% dimensional shrinkage could be observed in Z-axis depending on infill and layer height, no obvious dimensional shrinkage in XY-axis. 6. If PPA CF is used as the support material for itself, please remove the support structure after annealing. Otherwise, the support structure could be permanently bonded to the model after moisture absorption.
