Bambu Lab PPS-CF

Printable only with Bambu Lab X1E & H2 Series

PPS-CF is a composite material made from carbon fiber-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide. The combination of PPS resin and carbon fiber gives PPS-CF resistance to solvents, corrosion, heat, and flames. In addition, it offers high strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability for engineering applications.

Ultra-high heat resistance

Flame-retardant properties

Mechanical properties for engineering applications

Solvent and chemical resistance

Very low moisture absorption

PPS-CF has a heat deflection temperature of up to 264°C at 0.45 MPa and can continuously operate at temperatures above 200°C . This is higher than normal PA-CF materials, which have maximum temperatures around 190°C and 120°C . The heat resistance supports creep resistance in demanding industrial environments and applications.
