Toughened Nylon PPA CF20 EPDM is a composite material developed specifically for 3D printer filaments. Based on polyphthalamide (PPA), it contains 20% carbon fiber (CF20) and EPDM elastomer. Through the synergistic effect of elastomer toughening and fiber reinforcement, it retains PPA’s heat resistance while improving toughness, solving the brittleness and cracking issues of traditional reinforced nylon printed parts, and adapting to 3D printing needs.

 

Main Performance Categories

 

Toughening and Impact Resistance
The notched impact strength of PPA CF20 EPDM reaches 25kJ/m², 80% higher than untoughened PPA. Its low-temperature (-40℃) impact strength retention rate exceeds 70%, avoiding low-temperature brittle fracture of printed parts.

 

Balanced Mechanical Strength
With a tensile strength of 120MPa and flexural modulus of 8GPa, PPA CF20 EPDM ensures structural strength through carbon fiber reinforcement, while EPDM prevents excessive rigidity, adapting to the printing of complex shapes.

 

Printing Process Compatibility of PPA CF20 EPDM

It has a melting temperature range of 280-310℃, suitable for conventional high-temperature 3D printers. With a melt flow rate (MFR) of 15g/10min@300℃, the filament extrusion is stable, and the interlayer bonding strength is 45MPa, reducing interlayer cracking.

 

Environmental Resistance Stability
PPA CF20 EPDM has a continuous service temperature of 150℃, with an oil resistance strength retention rate of 90% after 1000h immersion. EPDM enhances weather resistance, ensuring the stability of printed parts in complex environments.

Surface Resistivity Comparison

Conductors < 10⁵ Ω/sq.
Antistatic Materials 10⁵ ~ 10¹² Ω/sq.
Insulators > 10¹² Ω/sq.
Static-Dissipative 10⁶ ~ 10¹¹ Ω/sq.
*Key Influencing Factors
Humidity: Increased moisture can reduce resistivity (e.g., in polymers).
Temperature: Affects carrier mobility (↑ heat may lower semiconductor resistivity).
Surface Contamination: Dust/oils alter readings significantly.
Additives: Carbon black, metallic fillers can lower resistivity.
*Applications
Electronics: Antistatic materials (10⁶–10⁹ Ω/sq) prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Aerospace: Composites must control resistivity to avoid charge buildup.
Medical Devices: Insulating materials (>10¹² Ω/sq) ensure patient safety.
*Examples
Polypropylene (PP): ~10¹⁶ Ω/sq (excellent insulator).
Carbon Fiber Composites: 10³–10⁶ Ω/sq (static dissipation).
ESD Flooring: 10⁶–10⁹ Ω/sq.

Get to Know Carbon Fibers

The table presents key performance data of carbon fiber grades. T300, with a tensile strength of 3530 MPa and a tensile modulus of 230 GPa, has a relatively low tensile elongation at break of 1.5% and a body density of 1.76 g/cm³.
As the grade increases, for example, T700S shows an enhanced tensile strength of 4900 MPa compared to T300, while maintaining the same tensile modulus but with a higher elongation at break of 2.1%. T800S and T1000G both have a tensile modulus of 294 GPa, and their tensile strengths are 5880 MPa and 6370 MPa respectively. T1100G stands out with the highest tensile strength of 7000 MPa and a tensile modulus of 324 GPa. Generally, with the increase in product grade, the tensile strength and modulus tend to rise, while the density remains relatively stable around 1.8 g/cm³.

  • What are CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites?

    CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites are materials where carbon fibers are incorporated into a thermoplastic matrix. They combine the strength and stiffness of carbon fibers with the processability and recyclability of thermoplastics. For instance, they are used in automotive parts like bumper beams.

  • What are the benefits of CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites over traditional composites?

    The key benefits include faster production cycles, easier recyclability, and better impact resistance. They also offer design flexibility. An example is in the manufacturing of consumer electronics casings where complex shapes can be achieved more easily.

  • How are CF Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites processed?

    Common processing methods include injection molding, extrusion, and compression molding. Injection molding is widely used for mass production. For example, in the production of small components for the medical industry.
