Nanovia PP CF Pellets: Carbon fiber reinforced

NOTE: Our price is PER Kg of Pellets.

Minimum order quantity: 3Kg - PLEASE ADD A MINIMUM OF 3 OF THIS ITEM TO YOUR BASKET.

Polypropylene is a semi-rigid material, with high wear and shock resistance, notably used for hinges and components that endure regular flexing. The added carbon fibers makes Nanovia PP more rigid and UV resistant. Humidity proof, it’s perfectly suited for both outdoor and high stress industral applications.

Much like polyamide (nylon), polypropylene gradually becomes more flexible with higher temperatures. The carbon fiber composition of Nanovia PP CF limit this phenomenon allowing it to be used for parts that require dimensional control in hot and humid environments.

Advantages

• Very low water absorption rate
• Good chemical resistance
• UV resistant

Storage

• Store in airtight container with desiccant, out of direct sunlight.
• Dehydrate for 4h at 60°C prior to printing after prolonged exposure to humidity.

Printing

• A reinforced nozzle, suitable for abrasive materials is recommended.
• In the case of bed adhesion issues, it’s recommended to either use a “raft” or a polypropylene bed. The latter can be achieved by applying polypropylene film/tape to the printer bed. In order for the film/tape to not unstick, a lower bed temperature is recommended.
