PPS CF: Material Composition & Key Features
PPS CF is an advanced pellet composite designed for Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF) 3D printing, combining polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) with carbon fiber reinforcement. This high-performance material delivers superior mechanical properties, including tensile strength exceeding 100 MPa and a flexural modulus of 8+ GPa, significantly outperforming standard PPS. Its optimized 2-4mm granular form ensures excellent flowability for high-speed extrusion processes.
PPS CF: Performance Advantages & Industrial Applications
With its high carbon fiber content, PPS CF offers critical benefits such as ultra-low shrinkage (<0.2%) and an exceptional heat deflection temperature (HDT) above 220°C. Combined with extrusion rates of up to 1.5 kg/h, this makes PPS CF the ideal choice for demanding applications, including aerospace components, automotive functional parts, and industrial tooling, where thermal stability, lightweighting, and structural strength are essential.
What is the composition of PPS CF?
PPS CF is an advanced engineering thermoplastic composite based on polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) polymer reinforced with carbon fibers. This high-performance material offers an excellent balance of mechanical strength and thermal stability, with a typical density of 1.6g/cm³. Its superior heat resistance (continuous use up to 220°C) and chemical inertness make it particularly suitable for demanding applications in aerospace, automotive, and industrial components where durability under extreme conditions is critical.
