Carbon EPX 86FR is a flame-retardant, high-strength resin for Carbon DLS printers that meets UL 94 V-0 and is UL Blue Card certified.
Carbon EPX 86FR is a flame-retardant, high-strength resin for Carbon DLS printers that meets UL 94 V-0 and is UL Blue Card certified.
It combines flame retardance with functional toughness and long-term stability for consumer, automotive and industrial parts that need a UL 94 V-0 or FAR 25.853(a) rating.
Typical values from the Carbon data sheet (doc 115535-01-D, 11 April 2023). The UL Blue Card applies to L1, M1, M2 and M3 printers in horizontal and vertical build planes.
