3DXTech PEKK-A Filament NZ
ThermaX™ PEKK-A (PolyEtherKetoneKetone) is made using Arkema Kepstan® PEKK and is one of the highest-performance polymers in plastics business. A leading material in the PAEK family, PEKK has exceptionally good mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties. It is also not only substantially easier to print than PEEK, it’s one of the easiest ultra-polymers to 3D print period. Developed in partnership with Arkema, a leading supplier of ultra-performance materials.
Manufacturers recommended settings:
- Hot end: 345- 375 Degrees
- Heated Bed: 120- 140
- Heated Chamber: 70- 140
- Drying: 120 for 4 hours
- Support: Our Aquatek water soluble support works great to create complex parts.
Benefits of ThermaX™ PEKK-A Include:
- High thermal properties with a CUT of 260°C, Tg of 162°C, and a Tm of 335°C
- Substantially easier to 3D print than PEEK
- Wide processing window from 345-375°C
- Inherently flame resistant (UL94 V-0)
- Low smoke generation
- Outstanding mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistances
