- Material Properties
This product has all the regulatory compliance necessary for healthcare applications, furthermore has higher structural stability and very high fluidity. The specific characteristics of ABV ABS are:; Contain (GO- Ag), these components inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses, algae, fungi, or mold. It´s a powerful antimicrobial.; Contains pure graphene oxide with the optimal size and concentration to maintain the excellent mechanical properties of the polymer.; Hydrophobic material that emphasizes impact resistance as well as abrasion resistance to lipids, cleaning, and disinfectant agents.; The graphene blocks the contraction, deformation, and also blocks; The lifting of the upper board layers. This gives the material a structure and a density that allows producing complex geometric structures.; Also noteworthy is the increase in melting temperature, the wide range of temperatures it can withstand without degradation, and the increase in heat dissipation.
- Use Recommendation
- Processing temperature range
- 260-310 °C. The processing temperature is directly related to the printing speed. The faster the processing speed is, the higher the temperature of the print fuser should be.
- Recommended bed temperature
- 90-100 °C. If the adherence to the building platform is weak, it is recommended to use products to improve the adherence between the piece and the machine.
- Layer fan speed
- 0%.
- Heated chamber temperature
- not necessary (if available, use it at more than 45°C). It is advisable to use totally closed printers to prevent internal stresses produced by the cooling of the parts from causing undesired breakage or deformation.
- Drying conditions
- 80°C for at least 4 hours. Drying of the material is recommended if signs of moisture are detected in the print.
- Printing speed
- 30-60 mm/s. This parameter will depend on the final quality that is expected to be achieved as well as the stability of the printing machine itself.
- Nozzle size
- 0.4-0.6 mm. To prevent excessive wear of the extrusion components, special hardened or stainless steel nozzles should be used.
- Due to the reinforcement found in the material itself, this can lead to nozzle clogging. To eliminate this problem, the filament shrinkage must be used cautiously, even to the point of eliminating it.
