In addition,
various rigid thermoplastics can have reinforcements and/or additives, such as fillers and fibers or color
masterbatches, which not only can alter the resultant properties of the substrate, but also the surface chemistry.
Furthermore, the material has outstanding
adhesion to Ultramid B3G6 (glass reinforced polyamide 6) as demonstrated in Figure 10 and 11.

Glass Transition Temperature: Glass transition temperature is the
point at which an amorphous polymer becomes hard and brittle.
However, these high-
heat materials require much higher mold and melt temperatures than
typical plastics such as polypropylene (PP), nylon and polycarbonate
(PC).
The metal used for FFF dies depends on the polymer:
unfilled materials can use softer brass dies, while fiber-reinforced materials
need harder steel to prevent premature wear.
