PolyTétraFluoroéthylène (PTFE) low friction index combined with polycarbonate’s (PC) mechanical resistance makes this filament ideal for mechanical pieces exposed to friction, such as gears.
Nanovia PC-PTFE can be used up to 130°C.
Avantages:
- Very low friction index
- Ideal for mechanical pieces
- Better water resistance compared to native PC
Conseils d’utilisation
Storage
- Store Nanovia PC-PTFE in a dry and dark location, if possible with a desiccant.
- In order to guarantee good printing conditions dehydrate Nanovia PC-PTFE at 80°c for 4 hours or longer, when the spools has been exposed to moisture for an extended period.
Printing
- Extrusion temperature : between 250 and 280°C
- Heated bed temperature : between 100 and 130°C
- Heated enclosure temperature : >80°C
- An ABS raft can allow for a better bed adhesion
Health and safety
Printing
- Do not extrude at temperatures above 330°C, risk of VOC creation.
- We recommend printing Nanovia PC-PTFE in a room equipped with air extraction or by using appropriate breathing equipment.
Post treatment
- We recommend wearing standard safety equipment during the post treatment of your prints made with Nanovia PC-PTFE
Packaging
Spools are packed in individual boxes, sous-vide with desiccant. Spools are equipped with both a material traciblity and a production series number.

FAQ:
Le PC-PTFE n’adhère pas au plateau :
Le PC-PTFE a très peu d’accroche sur la majeure partie des plateaux. Pour faire adhérer votre pièce, il est conseillé d’utiliser un raft en ABS si vous disposez d’une imprimante à deux têtes d’extrusion, ou alors d’utiliser des solutions qui existent sur le marché pour favoriser l’adhésion (plateau perforé, film PEI, etc).
