Strong Industrial Filament With Specific Properties

Clariant developed this 3D printer filament while testing a number of candidate materials for an industrial customer. The customer desired a very strong and tough (not brittle) material that printed with many common 3D printers and would not regularly require drying.

Benefits

Semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyester
Easy to print
No odour during printing
Very high tensile strength (70 MPa 3D printed in XZ direction)
High impact strength
Reduced thermo-oxidative degradation
Minimized undesired yellowing due to ultraviolet light

Applications

Manufacturing aids (jigs and fixtures) for industries such as automotive, aerospace, consumer goods, electrical & electronics, packaging and more
Functional parts requiring strength and toughness
Prototypes

Subject to detailed product specifications.

Overview

Clariant's high impact modified 10% glass fiber reinforced polylactic acid (PLA-HI-GF10) 3D printer filament proved to be the best material for this industrial customer and is now offered as an exceptional material for the production of manufacturing aids and functional parts that require high strength and toughness. Clariant Hostanox® P-EPQ® and Hostavin® ARO 8 are added to PLA-HI-GF10 to improve the heat stability and resistance to thermo-oxidative degradation and yellowing of the material during printing and usage.
