en.Wedoany.com Reported - Italy's Xenia has announced the launch of XECARB PPA-CF, a new FFF/FDM 3D printing filament based on PPA and reinforced with 20% carbon fiber.

The material is developed using a bio-based PPA matrix, specifically designed for demanding technical applications requiring excellent mechanical properties, outstanding stiffness, dimensional stability, and high-temperature resistance. Its chemical resistance allows contact with solvents, oils, and greases. XECARB PPA-CF has a density of 1.21 g/cm³ and a heat deflection temperature of up to 235°C. The carbon fiber reinforcement reduces shrinkage and warping, improves process repeatability, and ensures high dimensional accuracy in final parts.

Stefano Azzolin, Customer Manager of Xenia's 3DF Materials division, stated: "XECARB PPA-CF delivers the high mechanical, thermal, and dimensional performance that are key requirements for producing structural parts via FFF 3D printing. The material is used to produce tools and fixtures, such as jigs, assembly templates, drilling guides, and robotic gripping systems, as well as technical components in high-stress industrial environments."

These characteristics make the product suitable for lightweight, high-performance structural component applications in the automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors. XECARB PPA-CF joins Xenia's 3DF Materials portfolio, alongside 3D printing filament lines such as PA11, PEBA, PVDF, and PETG. This carbon fiber reinforced material has a density of 1.21 g/cm³ and a heat deflection temperature of 235°C.
