Description
Made using Arkema Kepstan PEKK (PolyEtherKetoneKetone) and state of the
art conductive additives, this ESD PEKK-A is one of the
highest-performance polymers in world and ideal for demanding
applications. This filament was created for the highest-spec situations
where tightly controlled static dissipation, thermal properties, and
mechanical performance properties are required.
Benefits of 3DXSTAT ESD-PEKK-A
- Substantially easier to print than PEEK, made using 50/40 type PEKK copolymer known as PEKK-A
- High thermal properties with a Tg of 162C, HDT of 150C, and Tm of 305C
- Inherently flame resistant and self-extinguishing
- Long-term hydrolytic stability making it ideal for steam and autoclave environments
- Excellent dimensional stability with low heat creep, low and uniform coefficient of thermal expansion, and highly reproducible part-to-part dimensions
- Exceptional strength and modulus, even at high temperatures
- Excellent resistance to a broad range of chemicals, such as automotive fluids, fully halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, and aqueous solutions
- Stable dielectric constant and dissipation factor over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies

Material DETAILS
Glass Fiber Reinforced Filament
What Is It?
DescriptionFibers made of glass reinforced into the polymer during manufacturing and aligned along the axis of filament.
This, along with their physical makeup, give this material enormous strength and mechanical properties.
What Does It Do?
Glass fiber reinforcement gives material a lot of desirable properties:
High strength
High stiffness
High chemical resistance
Low thermal expansion
How Does It Work?
Reinforcing plastic with glass fibers produces a 3D printing filament which exhibits the best properties of both fiberglass and the plastic of choice.
What Is It Good For?
Ideal for any applications which require strength and rigidity.
For these reasons, glass fiber reinforced filament is very popular in automotive, mechanical, civil engineering, and research industries.
