| - Extremely strong<br>- Excellent layer bonds<br>- High flexibility<br>- Very high temp resistance<br>- Very low coefficient of friction | - Horrible to print<br>- Very high moisture retention<br>- Can't be too dry<br>- Very high warpage<br>- Requires a closed (ideally heated) chamber |
|
||||
### PA-12
|
||||
- Higher warpage than PA-6
|
||||
- Higher toughness
|
||||
- Higher temp resistance
|
||||
- Durable but brittle
