Natural - 1.75mm 3DXTech FluorX™ PVDF Filament - 0.5kg In stock

PVDF [Polyvinylidene fluoride] is a high-performance polymer which offers exceptional thermal and chemical resistances.

Rated for uses up to 150°C – this filament can be used in demanding applications under the most extreme conditions. PVDF is resistant to most chemicals and solvents, making it a great fit for applications which will be exposed to harsh environments.

Benefits of PVDF Include:

• High Thermal Properties: 150°C CUT
• Excellent resistance to a broad range of chemicals, such as automotive fluids, oils, gas, lubricants, fully halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, acids, and bases
• Non-hygroscopic, does not absorb moisture. No drying needed!
• Inherently UV-resistant with very stable H-F bonds.
• Low smoke and flame characteristics with a base resin rated V-0
• Long-term hydrolytic stability
• Resistant to nuclear radiation
• Very good abrasion resistance – similar to Nylon and UHMW-PE for high-wear applications

Recommended Print Settings:

• Extruder: Between 245 and 265°C depending on your printer. Some need to get as high as 280°C.
• Platform Temp: 90 – 110°C
• Bed Prep: Nano Polymer Adhesive gives us the best results.
• Other: No or slow cooling fan. Print with speeds of 40-60mm/s as a good starting point.
• Drying Instructions: PVDF doesn’t absorb moisture, and doesn’t need drying!
• Safety note: This polymer starts to degrade and break down at temps above 290°C. Please keep your extruder temperature below that point to avoid degradation, offgassing, and mechanical property loss.
