CarbonX Carbon Fiber PEKK-A (PolyEtherKetoneKetone) aerospace-grade performance is made possible using PEKK (60/40 copolymer) and Toray T-800 aerospace-grade chopped carbon fiber. This combination makes for one of the highest-performance polymer compounds in the world. A leading material in the PAEK family, PEKK has exceptionally good mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties. It is also substantially easier to print than PEEK.
The premium Toray Aerospace-Grade carbon fiber reinforcement makes this a compound purpose built for extreme applications which require extreme thermal, mechanical, and chemical resistance properties. CarbonX PEKK products have a lower melt temperature as well as lower rate and degree of crystallinity than PEEK, which aids in the remarkable ease of printing.
Benefits of CF PEKK-A [Aerospace] Includes:
Substantially easier to 3D print than PEEK
Wide processing window from 345-375°C
Tg of 160°C, HDT of 150°C, and a Tm of 305°C
Inherently flame resistant (UL94 V-0)
Low smoke generation
Outstanding mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistances
Filament Specifications:
CARBONXTM CF-PEKK-A filament is 1.75mm +/- 0.05mm in diameter
Recommended Print Settings:
Extruder: 360-390°C
Bed Temp: 120-140°C
Nozzle: We currently recommend using one of our abrasion-resistant GammaMaster® Nozzles with a minimum diameter of 0.4mm.
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 Adhesiveor3DXTECH Polyimide Tapegives us the best results
Heated Chamber: Recommended, up to 140°C if at all possible.
Supports: ThermaXHTS High-Temp Supportis designed to work with complex, high-temp materials like this
Drying Instructions: 120°C for 4 hours
Abrasive Material
PEKK's material properties are 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, making ourGammaMaster® Nozzlesan excellent choice for this material.
