HEAT RESISTANCE:
CPE (co-polyester) materials stand out for their exceptional qualities, showcasing chemical resistance, toughness, and impressive dimensional stability. This makes CPE a preferred material for a wide range of applications, including both functional prototypes and mechanical parts. While both CPE and CPE+ share similar performance characteristics, CPE+ offers additional advantages. Notably, it boasts higher temperature resistance and increased impact strength, making it an excellent choice for applications where these specific attributes are crucial. Whether opting for CPE or CPE+, users can rely on these co-polyester materials to deliver durability and reliability in the creation of functional and robust 3D-printed components.
CPE VS CPE+
- CPE offers a diverse selection of colors, providing users with a broad palette to choose from. This includes the sophisticated greyscale option, which adds a professional touch to 3D-printed models.
- CPE exhibits notable strength with higher tensile and flexural strength. On the other hand, CPE+ takes toughness to the next level. Formulated to be up to 10 times tougher than standard CPE, CPE+ is engineered to provide enhanced durability and resilience.
- CPE+ features a temperature resistance of up to 100ºC when compared to CPE, which is only resistant up to 70ºC
