3DXTech ThermaX™ PEI 1010 : 3D Printing Filament : 1.75 mm (0.5Kg) : Black

ThermaX PEI 3D Printing Filament

We manufacture this ultra-performance 3D printing filament using ULTEM 1010 PEI (polyether imide) resin from Sabic. Filaments made from ULTEM 1010 resin offer the ability to create parts with excellent properties at elevated temperatures due to a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217°C.PEI is an amorphous, high-performance polymer which combines excellent thermal properties, exceptional dimensional stability, inherent flame retardancy, and good chemical resistance.

Benefits of ULTEM 1010 PEI Include:

High thermal properties, with a Tg of 217°C

Inherently flame-resistant

Long-term hydrolytic stability

Excellent dimensional stability, low heat creep sensitivity, and a very low, uniform coefficient of thermal expansion create highly reproducible part-to-part dimensions

Exceptional strength and modulus, even at elevated temperatures

Good resistance to a broad range of chemicals, include automotive fluids, fully halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, and aqueous solutions

Stable dielectric constant and dissipation factor over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies

Typical Applications of ULTEM 1010 PEI:

Aerospace:

The excellent balance of flame retardancy, low smoke emission, and low smoke toxicity of ULTEM™ 1010 makes it an excellent candidate for aerospace and aircraft applications. ULTEM 1010 meets FAR 25.853 and OSU 65/65 with low toxicity, smoke, and flame evolution. Ultem™ resins are found in applications such as personal service units, oxygen panels and components, ventilation system components, connectors, cable ducts, latches, hinges, food tray containers, door handles, and interior cladding parts.

Automotive & Transportation:

ULTEM™ resins provide automotive manufacturers with a high performance, chemically resistant, thermally-stable, cost-effective alternative to metal that is strong enough to replace steel in some applications yet light enough to replace aluminum in others. For applications like transmission components, throttle bodies, ignition components, sensors, and thermostat housings.

Electronics:

ULTEM™ resin may be an excellent material choice for today’s demanding electrical applications, including connectors, MCB components like housings, shafts and levers, hard disk drive internals, FOUPs, BiTS, PCBs, MCCB internals, Plenum devices, LCD projector internals, fuel cell components, and many other applications.

Recommended Print Settings:
