AKROMID®
NEXT U28 ICF 40 1 black (8238)PA11 CF40
AKROMID® NEXT U28 ICF 40 1 black (8238) is a Polyamide 11 reinforced with 40% recycled carbon fibre. The PA 11 is made from castor seed oil (bio-based content > 92%). The compound's low density as well as excellent ductility even at lower temperatures combined with high stiffness and strength enable the use for demanding applications, e.g., for lightweight construction or sports & leisure. The production of large-volume parts is possible with high throughputs > 1 kg/h in 3D-printing with pellets in screw extrusion additive manufacturing and Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF).

Processing information
The values mentioned are recommendations. We only recommend desiccant / dry air dryers or vacuum dryers. Too long a drying time and the resulting residual moisture content below the lower limit can lead to filling problems and surface defects. The specified drying time refers to closed and undamaged bagged material. When processing from previously opened bags or from octabins with polyolefin inliners, a longer drying time may be necessary. It is recommended to check the residual moisture content after the drying process.
