Frequently asked questions
CF grades require slightly higher temperatures and pressures. Very abrasive → carbide tooling is mandatory. Almost isotropic shrinkage is very low. Electrical conductivity must be taken into account in the design of parts.
PA12 is recyclable. In selective laser sintering (SLS), used powders can be recycled up to 30–50%. Mechanical recycling is possible for injection-moulded parts.
PA12 grades are approved for food contact (FDA 21 CFR, EU Regulation 10/2011). Verify the compliance of the specific grade with the food type and temperature.
