NANOVIA PC CF Carbon fibre reinforced

PC CF carbon fiber reduces the polycarbonate’s tendency to warp during printing, whilst increasing its mechanical properties. These added fibers also increase the material’s UV resistance, native polycarbonate being sensible to it.

Polymer Name: Polycarbonate (PC)

Processing Methods: 3D Printing, Fused Filament Fabrication
