BASF Ultrafuse PA

Innofil3D Ultrafuse PA X is a Nylon filament that is specially designed for FFF / FDM 3D printing. This material is based on the BASF polyamide portfolio, also called known as Ultramid®. The unique mechanical properties thanks to the chemical structure make this filament suitable for various applications in a wide range temperature range.

First BASF filament based on Ultramid®.

BASF Ultramid® is a molding compound based on PA6, PA66 and various co-polyamides such as PA6 / 66. Ultramid® is known for its high mechanical strength, rigidity and thermal stability. In addition, Ultramid® also good toughness at low temperatures. Thanks to these excellent properties this material has become indispensable in almost all engineering sectors. For a wide range of components and machine elements, as a high-quality electrical insulation material and for many special applications. Ultrafuse PA is the 3D printable translation of the BASF Ultramid® material. It is based on co polyamide 6/66 grade of intermediate viscosity. It has a lower melting temperature than PA6 and PA66 and can therefore both be at a lower temperature are printed and has a better impact strength than PA6 and PA66, which is a new application field for the end users. Depending on specific requirements, the formulation can be further optimized and can be special filaments are made.

Advantages of Ultrafuse PA X

• Good fatigue resistance.

• The low melting point makes it printable on many FFF / FDM 3D printers.

• Good abrasion resistance.
