INTAMSYS | PPA-CF

$168.00

INTAM™ PPA-CF is a polyphthalamide (PPA) filament reinforced with 15% chopped carbon fiber for FDM printing. As a semi-crystalline aromatic polyamide, PPA provides greater strength, stiffness, and thermal resistance than nylon 6, while being less sensitive to moisture. It also offers excellent chemical resistance, fatigue resistance, and creep resistance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is PPA-CF by INTAMSYS?

PPA-CF is a polyphthalamide filament reinforced with carbon fiber, designed for strong, stiff, and heat-resistant parts.

What are the main benefits of PPA-CF by INTAMSYS?

It offers high mechanical strength, excellent dimensional stability, reduced moisture absorption, and resistance to heat, wear, and chemicals.

What are the recommended printing conditions for PPA-CF by INTAMSYS?

It prints best at 280–320 °C with a heated bed (100–120 °C) and an enclosed chamber. A hardened nozzle is required due to abrasion.

What challenges should users expect with PPA-CF by INTAMSYS?

The filament is abrasive on standard brass nozzles, requires careful drying to avoid moisture defects, and benefits from controlled chamber temperatures to reduce warping.

What are the typical applications for PPA-CF by INTAMSYS?

PPA-CF is used in automotive, aerospace, and industrial parts where high strength, heat tolerance, and chemical resistance are critical.
