Ultrafuse PP

Ultrafuse PP is a high-performance thermoplastic material with low density, high elasticity and high fatigue resistance. The mechanical properties make it an ideal material for 3D printing applications, which must withstand high stress or strain.

Characteristics:

• Low density
• Resistant to chemicals
• Fatigue resistant
• Elasticity and toughness
• Isolation

Polypropylene

Polypropylene or PP is widely known as a solution for automotive, appliance (household) and liquid container applications. PP is one of the most used materials in the world thanks to its versatility and ability to design lightweight and resistant parts. Ultrafuse PP filament allows these solutions to be available for professional 3D printing. To provide users with valuable information we have collected data regarding the mechanical properties of the printed material according to ISO standards.
