CarbonX™ HTN+CF is made using a semi-aromatic High Temperature Nylon [HTN] and a specialty carbon fiber ideally suited to high-temp polyamides. HTN+CF is a go-to for demanding applications that require excellent thermal, mechanical, and chemical resistance – along with ease of printing.

CarbonX™ HTN+CF (High Temp CF Nylon) Printing Filament

CarbonX™ High Temp CF Nylon is an advanced, semi-aromatic polyphthalamide (PPA) reinforced with high-modulus carbon fiber. This polymer is widely used for metal replacement applications that must resist high mechanical loads at elevated temperatures and aggressive chemical environments. HTN has traditionally been a go-to material for demanding applications in automotive, aerospace, oil & gas, electrical, electronics, and industrial markets.

Benefits of HTN+CF High Temp CF Nylon Include:

High thermal properties, with a Tg of 125°C, HDT of 240°C, and Tm of 265°C
Excellent strength and stiffness over a wide temperature range, up to 240°C, higher than ULTEM™ PEI
Very low moisture absorption yielding improved retention of mechanical properties even when exposed to humid environments
Outstanding chemical resistance to alcohols, acids, automotive and jet fuels, oils, lubricants, brake and transmission fluids, antifreeze, and Zn/Ca Chlorides
