Discover how EPX 86 FR is reshaping fire safety compliance with advanced materials and technology.
EPX 86 FR is a high-performance, flame-retardant material designed specifically for additive manufacturing. It combines the mechanical properties of traditional thermoplastics with the geometric freedom and speed of 3D printing. This unique material meets stringent fire safety standards, making it ideal for applications requiring high strength, durability, and flame resistance.
EPX 86 FR excels in fire safety compliance with its UL 94 V-0 rating, indicating its superior flame retardant capabilities. This allows engineers to confidently incorporate this material into designs, knowing it will meet or exceed necessary safety standards.
EPX 86 FR breaks the barrier between fire resistance and mechanical strength by offering exceptional tensile strength, modulus, and impact resistance. Engineers can now develop components that not only withstand high temperatures but also endure mechanical stresses, ensuring longevity and reliability in demanding environments.
EPX 86 FR leverages Carbon 3D's Digital Light Synthesis™ (DLS™) technology to deliver unparalleled design freedom and rapid prototyping. With this technology, engineers can iterate designs swiftly, reducing time-to-market and accelerating innovation cycles.
EPX 86 FR's unique composition enables the production of lightweight components without sacrificing strength or safety. This contributes to overall efficiency and performance, whether in fuel savings or enhanced maneuverability.
EPX 86 FR's versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. In aerospace, it can be used for interior cabin parts that require both structural integrity and flame resistance. In automotive, it’s ideal for under-the-hood components exposed to high temperatures. Consumer electronics benefit from its ability to create robust, flame-retardant housings and enclosures.
