CarbonX Carbon
Fiber PA12 is made using high-modulus carbon fiber and a specialty Nylon 12
(PA12) that we chose for it€™s printability, thermal properties, and chemical
resistance. PA12+CF is widely used in a variety of industries due to its
excellent chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and wide processing
window. Our formulation ensures very low shrinkage in the printed part
resulting in excellent dimensional stability, making our PA12+CF an excellent
choice for tools, fixtures, and jigs.
Benefits of CarbonX Nylon 12+CF
High thermal properties, with a CUT of 120C and HDT of 150C
Excellent strength and stiffness over a wide temperature range, up to 150C
Very low moisture absorption yielding improved retention of mechanical properties even when exposed to humid environments
Low density makes it ideal for light-weight parts
Superior chemical resistances, especially when compared to PA6 nylons
Low shrinkage and warping for high dimensional stability and reproducible part-to-part measurements
