You use PC-PBT for sturdy hard 3D parts that must also be chemical and temperature resistant
Polycarbonate provides the strength and PBT provides excellent chemical resistance and resistance to extreme high and low temperatures (-30 ° C).
PBT is short for Polybutylene Terephthalate, a semi-crystalline thermoplastic. PBT is widely used in injection molding; PBT is easy to process at low temperatures. That is why PBT is often used as a replacement for, for example, Nylon, PP and ABS, especially if you consider that PBT has excellent chemical and mechanical resistance.
Technical data:
- Vicat Softening temperature: 139°C
- Charpy impact strength (X-Y): 21.4 ± 3 (kJ/m2) (ASTM D256 (ISO 179, GB/T 1043)
- Tensile Strength (X-Y): 41.8 ± 0.8 (MPa) ASTM D638 (ISO 527, GB/T 1040)
- Bending strength (X-Y): 64.4 ± 0.3 (MPa)(ASTMD790 (ISO 178, GB/T 9341)
PC-PBT is made from Covestro's Makroblend®. Compared to other PC filament types, PC-PBT has much better chemical resistance and very good impact strength at very low temperatures of - 30 ° C
PC-PBT filament is widely used in automotive, public works, electronic and household appliances. PBT is very strong, rigid, dimensionally stable and has an excellent tensile strength and PC-PBT also prints quite easily.
PC / PBT is relatively easy to 3D print, provided you take into account the right circumstances for 3D printing. More information can be found in the Printing Guide PC-PBT
Rules for 3D printing with Polymaker PC-PBT:
- Use a hard steel nozzle such as the P3-D Hercules
- Use PolyDissolve ™ S2 as a support material
- Dry PC-PBT for 8 hours at 80 ° C
- Print PC-PBT in a heat chamber between 100-110 ° C
- Do you want extra strong 3D prints? Anneal the print in the oven for 2 hours at 90 ° C
- Clean your hotend after every print
- Storage tip: PC-PBT should always be stored in a resealable bag in a dry environment.
