General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to Enabling category of greener alternatives thus aligns with "Design for energy efficency". Performance ABS 3D printing filament is temperature resistance, flexible. It is an extremly durable thermoplastic, commonly used in rapid phototyping and additive manufacturing environment to test product impact resistance and durability. Click here for more information.
Performance ABS 3D printing filaments
  • Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is a polymer known for its toughness, brilliance and tactile feeling
  • It is used in many areas, such as appliance shells and gears, cosmetics containers and industrials with power plugs, driving bar coverings and much more
  • Our special formulation reduces offensive odors, making our ABS filaments very efficient

Material Properties
  • Density: 1.04 g/cm3
  • Tensile modulus: 2300 Mpa
  • Tensile strengh at yield: 2.6%
  • Flexural strength: 65%
  • IZOD impact strength notched 23 °C: 29 kJ/m2
  • Water absorption: 1%
  • MFR: 19g/10 min
  • Vicat softening temperature: 90 °C

Application

This product can be used in material extrusion 3D printing technique.
Performance ABS 3D Printing Parameter:
  • Extruder (nozzle) temperature: 230 +/-10 °C
  • Bed temperature: 100 +/-10 °C
  • Print speed: 60-90 mm/s
  • Fan: 0-30 %
  • Minimum nozzle diameter: 0.3 mm
  • Plate materials: kapton tape, abs glue, etc.

Application Notes:
  • To enhance the brightness and smooth the finish, objects printed can be processed with acetone gas (Always be careful to take proper safety measures)
  • Warping of the final object can be reduced using a heated bed
  • Sun exposure weakens the ABS, not recommended for use in outdoor applications
