What is INTAMSYS PC-FR and what makes it different from regular PC?
PC-FR is a flame-retardant polycarbonate filament. It offers the same toughness and heat resistance as standard PC but meets fire safety standards like UL94 V-0, making it safer for applications requiring flame resistance.
What printing conditions are required for INTAMSYS PC-FR?
PC-FR requires a high-temperature nozzle (≥260 °C), a heated bed (≥100 °C), and preferably a heated chamber to reduce warping and ensure strong interlayer bonding.
What applications are best suited for INTAMSYS PC-FR?
It is ideal for automotive, aerospace, electronics housings, and transportation components, where both mechanical strength and flame resistance are required.
Does INTAMSYS PC-FR sacrifice strength for flame retardancy?
No. PC-FR maintains the impact strength, heat resistance, and durability of regular PC while adding flame-retardant properties.
How should INTAMSYS PC-FR be stored?
Like most engineering-grade filaments, PC-FR is hygroscopic and should be kept in a dry box or sealed container. If moisture is absorbed, drying before printing ensures best results.
