FibreX™ PP+GF30 [Polypropylene] 3D Printing Filament

FibreX™ PP+GF30 is made using a specialty formulated 30% glass fiber reinforced polypropylene copolymer which we created specifically for 3D printing. Our formulation offers improved thermal properties and lower shrinkage & warp compared to competitive PP-based compounds.

Reinforcing this trusted engineering polymer with glass fiber really made it a game changer for industrial applications. 3D printed PP+GF30 parts can be found in a wide array of real-world functional end uses or prototypes with automotive, tooling fixtures and jigs, appliances, and sporting goods.

Benefits of PP+GF Include:

• Excellent resistance against a huge variety of chemicals
• Low density and weight
• Low shrinkage and warping
• Does not absorb moisture, no drying needed!
• High strength, stiffness, and impact resistance

Chemical Resistance of PP+GF

Since properties can change depending on print environment and 3D model geometry and/or surface area, it is always required to do your own testing, but Polypropylene is famous for its chemical resistances to a huge range of environments including:

• Acids: Acetic, Boric, Hydrochloric, Phosphoric, Stearic, Sulfuric, Uric
• Bases: Hydrocides of Ammonium, Barium, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium
• Solvents: Acetone, Ethanol, MEK, Phenol (10%), Water
