Spectrum PPS AM230 1.75 mm NATURAL filament 0.75 kg

High performance for special applications

Spectrum PPS AM230 is another in a series of specialized high temperature filaments available from Spectrum. Our material is based on a PPS engineering polymer with exceptionally high mechanical properties. Even under continuous loading at high temperatures (over 100°C), stiffness, strength and creep resistance remain unchanged. Spectrum PPS AM230 has a softening point (VICAT) of up to 236°C.

The filament also has remarkable chemical resistance: it is practically insoluble in any known solvent, including concentrated acids and bases. A distinctive feature of Spectrum PPS AM230 is its inherent non-flammability, even without the use of flame retardant additives. Due to its high dielectric strength, PPS is an ideal insulator. It is also noteworthy that PPS exhibits excellent adhesion to silicone, which successfully improves its functional qualities in applications requiring hermetic connections between individual components.

The impressive properties of PPS enable very versatile applications in 3D printing. Especially in the electronics and automotive sectors, where parts must withstand the highest mechanical, electrical, thermal and chemical stresses.

Spectrum PPS AM230 filament is designed for high-temperature printers (printhead temperature 300-330°C; build platform 100-120°C) with an actively heated chamber (60-80°C). Despite the high dimensional stability of the material, to avoid stress cracking resulting from a sudden change in temperature (especially if the model is geometrically complex), we recommend leaving the model in a warm chamber to gradually cool the print before removing it.
