Raise3D Industrial PPA GF Technical Data Sheet
Raise3D Industrial PPA GF is glass fiber reinforced composite filament material based on PPA (polyphthalamide or
high-performance/high-temperature Nylon). PPA is distinguished from aliphatic polyamides (e.g.PA6) by higher
melting point, glass transition temperature (Tg), lower moisture absorption, and greater dimensional stability. The
incorporation of short glass fibers further improves upon the properties of PPA matrix, which makes PPA GF
printed parts popular for end-use applications in automotive, aerospace, electrical and electronics (E&E) industry
with excellent performance-price ratio.

Note：
1. Abrasion of the brass nozzle happens frequently when printing PPA GF. Using abrasion resistance nozzle,
such as hardened steel and above grade nozzles are highly recommended.
2. After the printing, it is recommended to anneal the model in the oven at 80-100°C for 8 hours and cool
the room temperature naturally.
3. Please dry the filament in an oven at 80-100°C for 6 hours to restore the printing quality of Raise3D
Industrial PPA GF.
