FusForce™ PET-CF is specially developed for FDM 3D printing process, and its substrate material is PET engineering plastic with low moisture absorption, high strength, creep resistance, excellent chemical resistance and high heat resistance. With good dimensional stability, no warpage and no shrinkage and no smell, no heating chamber are required during the printing process. It can be used with FusFree™ S-Multi Quick-Remove Support Material to solve the problem of poor molding effect of supporting surface of complex model.
Product highlights
Smart Fiber Reinforced Technology
FusRock® controlling the dispersion and distribution of chopped carbon fibers within the material matrix during the extrusion process, the fibers form a mesh skeleton structure within the material and bear most of the load transferred by the material matrix. Smart Fiber Reinforced Technology greatly improves the mechanical properties and heat resistance of the material, and releases the internal stress during the printing process through the fiber mesh structure, resulting in good dimensional stability of the printed part and no warpage.
Low creep
The molecular chain structure of PET is highly regular and has a rigid benzene ring structure, so that PET has better mechanical properties and less deformation under long-term load. Compared with PA and PC materials, PET has better creep-resistance.
