Polymer Materials
PA-12
An engineering grade thermoplastic for high-density parts with extreme dimensional accuracy and fine detail for functional prototyping and final parts. This strong thermoplastic is ideal for complex assemblies, lattice structures, housing, enclosures and connectors, and optimal for post finishing processes – has excellent chemical resistance to oils, greases, aliphatic hydrocarbons and alkalies.
PA 12 W (PURE WHITE)
This engineering-grade thermoplastic yields high-quality functional production parts in a premium white finish. PA 12 W (Pure White) is ideal for strong, complex parts with balanced property profiles and strong structures. In addition to high consistency, this robust material has high reusability. Designed for parts across industries such as healthcare and consumer goods, with applications such as prosthetics, medical equipment, fashion and wearables, and household appliances.
PA11
This thermoplastic delivers optimal mechanical properties, and is known for producing strong, ductile, functional parts. PA 11 also provides excellent chemical resistance and enhanced elongation-at-break. Ideal for impact resistance and ductility for prostheses, insoles, sports goods, snap fits, living hinges, and more.
BASF ULTRASINT® TPU
This MJF specific thermoplastic from BASF offers high wear/abrasion resistance, and is ideal for applications needing rubber-like flexibility and excellent shock absorption. TPU 88A – BASF Ultrasint 3D prints with high accuracy and detail, in addition to having smooth surfaces.
