3D Xtech ABS2030750BK0 3DXSTAT Conductive ESD Filament ABS 2.85 mm 750 g Black

ESD ABS is an advanced ESD-safe filament designed for use in critical applications that require protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and a high level of cleanliness. Manufactured with consistency in mind, 3DXTech starts with premium ABS and then combines it with a proprietary formulation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes. This results in a filament with excellent printing properties and consistent ESD characteristics. Typical applications include:

• Semi-con: Hard drive components, wafer handling, fixtures, enclosures, and connectors
• Industrial: Conveying, measuring, and capturing applications

The target conductivity for 3DXSTAT ESD ABS is 10^7 to 10^9 Ohms surface resistance on a 3DP probe using the concentric ring method.

Note: Internal studies have shown that increased extruder temperatures can achieve higher conductivity. Similarly, lower extruder temperatures have resulted in lower conductivities. Each printer is set up differently and has varying part geometries. Therefore, expect some testing time to understand how this filament performs in your specific printer or application.

The surface resistance of the printed ESD-safe part depends on the extruder temperature of the printer. For example, if your tests indicate that the part is too insulating, increasing the extruder temperature will improve conductivity. Thus, the surface resistance can be adjusted by tuning the extruder temperature up or down based on the readings you obtain from your side.
