Please be aware - this filament once printed is more towards the grey side of the black scale.
The 3D filament Kimya ABS Carbon belongs to the styrenic polymer family. Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene-carbon (ABS Carbon) is a mixture of ABS and carbon fibers. ABS Carbon improves inter-layer adhesion and the compression resistance of the printed part. Parts that are 3D printed using this filament are lighter and less fragile than when using standard ABS. It is used to produce frames, supports, shells and propellers. It is also highly valued by manufacturers of drones and by modeling aficionados. The Kimya ABS Carbon 3D filament has the following properties:
- No shrinkage
- Better tensile modulus than ABS
- Better interplayer adhesion
- Light weight objects
