Nylon filament

Nylon is a synthetic copolymer consisting primarily of polyamides that comes in a wide range of forms. Nylon's success in the 3D printing industry stems from its thermoplastic properties. This means that the Nylon 3D printer filament can be melted and shaped into various forms.

  1. NYLON NYLON FILAMENT FILAMENT Nylon is a synthetic copolymer consisting primarily of polyamides Nylon is a synthetic copolymer consisting primarily of polyamides that comes in a wide range of forms. Nylon's success in the 3D that comes in a wide range of forms. Nylon's success in the 3D printing industry stems from its thermoplastic properties. This printing industry stems from its thermoplastic properties. This means that the means that the Nylon 3D printer filament Nylon 3D printer filament can be melted and shaped into various forms. shaped into various forms. can be melted and PA (Polyamide) is an engineering plastic with excellent impact PA (Polyamide) is an engineering plastic with excellent impact resistance and the capacity to work continuously at temperatures resistance and the capacity to work continuously at temperatures up to 120 degrees Celsius for long periods of time. Nylon filament, up to 120 degrees Celsius for long periods of time. Nylon filament, often known as Nylon, is semi-flexible and has a semicrystalline often known as Nylon, is semi-flexible and has a semicrystalline structure that lends strength and endurance, making it ideal for structure that lends strength and endurance, making it ideal for the most demanding technical applications in 3D printing. Short- the most demanding technical applications in 3D printing. Short- term use in contact with moving parts is possible due to the low term use in contact with moving parts is possible due to the low coefficient of friction. coefficient of friction.
