LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ AM Compound EF004XXAR1
- Chemical Family
- Polyetherimide (PEI)Polyimides (PI)
SABIC's Specialties Business LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ EF004XXAR1 is a compound based on Polyetherimide (PEI) resin containing 20% glass fiber for Large Format Additive manufacturing (LFAM) applications. PEI compounds, based on SABIC's inherently flame-retardant ULTEM™ resins, provide low thermal expansion, high temperature performance, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, high modulus and low creep.
