Application recommendations

Storage

Store in airtight container with desiccant, out of direct sunlight.
Dehydrate for 4h at 60°C prior to printing after prolonged exposure to humidity.

Health and safety

Printing

We recommend printing Nanovia PA-6 in a room equipped with air extraction or by using appropriate breathing equipment.

Post treatment

Standard PPE recommended (dust mask, gloves)

Packaging

Vacuum packed spools, with desicant, packed in individual boxes with engraved serial number.

Other formats available on demand.
