CarbonX™ PEKK+CF15 Ultra Polymer is made using PEKK-A [60/40 copolymer] and 15% high modulus chopped carbon fiber. This polymer is used in a wide variety of end-use applications where exceptional thermal, mechanical, and chemical resistance is required.

Benefits of CarbonX™ PEKK-A + CF15CF Includes:

  • Easier to print than CF PEEK
  • Wide processing window from 360-390°C (ideal), up to 430°C if needed
  • Tg of 160°C, HDT of 150°C, and a Tm of 305°C
  • Inherently flame resistant base resin (UL94 V-0)
  • Base resin with low smoke generation and outgassing
  • Excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistances

Recommended Print Settings:

  • Extruder: 360-390°C
  • Bed Temp: 120-140°C
  • Nozzle: We currently recommend a hardened steel nozzle with a minimum diameter of 0.4mm. We also carry Tungsten Carbide Nozzles.
  • Other: Ideal layer height is 60% of nozzle diameter. We do not recommend printing layers smaller than 0.2mm with carbon fiber reinforced filaments
  • Bed Prep: Nano Polymer Adhesive and NorthPrint3d Bed Adhesive give us the best results
  • Heated Chamber: Recommended, up to 160°C if possible with your printer
  • Supports: ThermaX™ HTS High Temp Support is designed to work with complex, high-temp materials like this
  • Drying Instructions: 140°C for 4 hours once filament shows signs of moisture

Abrasive Material

This material is particularly abrasive among 3D printing filaments. Users may find standard brass nozzles are chewed through very quickly compared to standard wear and tear. When worn through, the nozzle diameter will widen inconsistently and the printer will experience extrusion issues.

Because of this, it's strongly recommended this material be printed through a hardened steel nozzle rather than a softer metal. Hardened Steel Nozzles can often be inexpensive and easily installed depending on your printer manufacturer's instructions.
