Technical Data Sheet for Ultrasint PA6 MF black
Version No.: 3.2, revised 11/2019
General information
Components
Mineral-filled Polyamide 6-based powder for Laser Sintering
Product Description
All Ultrasint PA6 grades have in common that they show high modulus, high strength and excellent thermal distortion stability. These properties ensure precise feature control, very good mechanical properties and simple surface reprocessing of 3D printed parts.
Ultrasint PA6 MF black contains a mineral reinforcement. In contrast to simple dry blends, the reinforcement is embedded within the particles, leading to improved powder homogeneity, better spreading and easier recycling. Tensile and flexural modulus, as well as impact strength are significantly higher compared to unfilled material. Ultrasint PA6 MF black therefore lends itself for applications where high stiffness and high strength are the most important requirements – a material suitable for parts with demanding mechanical property combinations.
Typical applications are:
▪ Engine compartment parts
▪ Media flow & storage parts (i.e. oil)
▪ Housings & covers
▪ Tooling equipment & molds
Delivery form & warehousing
Ultrasint PA6 MF black powder should be stored at 15 – 25°C in its originally sealed package in a clean and dry environment.
