Description
eSUN ePETG-CF Filament:
Upgrading 3D Printing to Engineering Level (Carbon Fiber Reinforced PETG)
eSUN ePETG-CF is a perfect blend of the printability of PETG and the high strength of carbon fiber. This material is designed to address the shortcomings of typical PETG by increasing rigidity, reducing warping, and providing a premium, aesthetically pleasing finish. It's ideal for impact-resistant components or those used in harsh environments.
Key features and points of interest:
-
High strength and durability: Reinforced with carbon fiber, the flexural modulus reaches 2500 MPa (over 200% increase compared to standard PETG), ensuring excellent dimensional stability under compressive force.
-
Premium Matte Finish: The printed material has a matte finish, which helps to seamlessly conceal layer lines and is not glossy like typical PETG.
-
Chemical and weather resistant: Retains the key properties of PETG in terms of water, chemical, and corrosion resistance, along with aging resistance that extends the lifespan of the product.
-
Easy and stable printing: Designed for low warping and reduced nozzle stickiness, supporting a wide range of printing speeds.
-
Diverse Color Options: Unlike typical carbon fiber which is only available in black, eSUN offers engineered matte finishes such as Dark Grey, Antique Brass, Black Red, Dark Green, and Dark Blue.

Instructions for printing
-
Nozzle: Due to the high rigidity of the carbon fiber material, a 0.4mm or 0.6mm hardened steel nozzle is required to prevent wear.
-
Drying: For best results, it is recommended to dry the noodles at 65℃ for at least 8 hours before printing.
-
Adhesion: For better adhesion to the print bed, it is recommended to use with PVP glue or PEI sheets.
