Nexa3D xPP405-Black

Nexa3D xPP405-Black is a high elongation and high toughness material with outstanding impact resistance and excellent surface finish.This stiff and durable high performance material is ideal for a wide variety of tools in the production floor, including manufacturing aids and final parts such as housings and consumer goods applications. The unique set of perform anceattributes makes it comparable to an unfilled thermoplastic like polypropylene. Parts can be printed with various DLP printersand machined, tapped, or polished for final finish.

    Post Processing

    xPP405-Black requires post processing to achieve specified properties. Prior to post curing, support structures should be removed from the printed part, and the part should be washed in a compatible cleaner. Nexa3D recommends either IPA or Cleaner C in 2 minute interval wash cycles. Use compressed air to remove residual solvent from the surface of the material between intervals.

    Post Curing

    xPP405-Black requires post curing to achieve specified properties. A wide array of post cure equipment can be used to cure xPP405-Black appropriately.

    Limitations

    Vat Printer : xPP405-Black formula is not possible.
    Post Cure : xPP405-Black requires UV/Visible light post curing.
