PYRA PC/ABS FR - Flame Retardant & High Thermal Resistance
The transformative power of fire
PYRA, draws its name from the ancient Greek word for fire, a source of inspiration deeply rooted in mythology. In Greek lore, fire was revered as a potent and essential force, symbolizing creation, destruction, purification, and divine power. Similarly, PYRA embodies these elemental and transformative properties. As a flame-retardant material completely devoid of bromine and chlorine, PYRA ensures not only safety but also the power to withstand intense heat. PYRA's remarkable thermal and mechanical properties make it a mythical choice for those seeking to harness the elemental strength of fire in the world of 3D printing.
- Enhanced Thermal Performance: Exhibits a Vicat softening temperature 10–15°C higher than standard PC/ABS blends, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
- Flame Retardant: Designed to meet stringent safety standards, ideal for electronic and electrical components such as enclosures and industrial connectors.
- Environmental Consideration: Free from brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, aligning with eco-friendly manufacturing practices.
