Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • ProtectS your electronics components from static shocks thanks to the Nanovia ABS ESD filament. This filament prevents the accumulation of static electricity by progressively discharging itself through its composite carbon black structure.
  • Ideal for housing and protecting hard drives as well as creation of electronic connectors.
Advantages
  • Protects from static electricity shocks.
  • Conductive.
  • Thermal resistance.

Safety & Health

Health and Safety

Printing

We recommend printing Nanovia ABS ESD in a room equipped with air extraction or by using appropriate breathing equipment. Whilst printing ABS produces a VOC derivative of styrene.


Post treatment

We recommend wearing standard safety equipment during the post treatment of your prints made with Nanovia ABS ESD.
