3D printing with PET-CF

PET-CF is a PET-based composite with carbon fiber, with high stiffness, low moisture absorption, high UV resistance and excellent thermal stability. Compared to PAHT-CF It is stiffer in the XY direction, has better UV resistance and is less sensitive to moisture, making PET-CF ideal for structural parts in humid and warm outdoor environments, such as various types of casings and housings for electronics and parts for drones. Parts made of PET-CF offer high dimensional stability and good resistance to deformation. If neither PET-CF nor PAHT-CF are stiff enough, you have to look into PPA-CF!

 

Features:

  • High stiffness and bending strength in XY direction
  • Low moisture absorption and good chemical resistance
  • Heat resistant up to approx. 180 °C (HDT)
  • Provides very dimensionally stable prints
  • Withstands UV light well

 

Suitable for: small and large series of mechanical and structural components for outdoor environments where rigidity, heat, UV and moisture resistance dominate.
