Description
Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polyphenylene Sulfide Overview
Bambu PPS-CF is a high-performance composite material made from carbon fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). By combining the inherent chemical stability and heat resistance of PPS resin with the strength and stiffness of carbon fiber, PPS-CF delivers exceptional mechanical performance, dimensional stability, and resistance to harsh environments, making it a specialized engineering plastic for demanding industrial applications.
Unmatched Mechanical Properties
By integrating the rigidity of PPS polymers with carbon fiber reinforcement, Bambu PPS-CF delivers excellent stiffness, bending strength, and tensile strength. Its high dimensional stability and resistance to warping help large and complex prints maintain precision throughout the printing process, making it ideal for high-accuracy engineering components.
Solvent and Chemical Resistance
Bambu PPS-CF offers exceptional resistance to solvents and chemicals, second only to PTFE. It remains virtually insoluble in common solvents below 200°C and shows strong resistance to acids, bases, and salts, making it an excellent choice for chemically aggressive environments.
Ultra-Low Water Absorption
With an ultra-low moisture absorption rate of approximately 0.05%, Bambu PPS-CF maintains stable mechanical and thermal properties even in high-humidity conditions. Unlike traditional PA-CF materials that may soften or degrade when exposed to moisture, PPS-CF retains its strength and durability, ensuring consistent performance in moisture-sensitive applications.
Superior Flame Retardancy
Certified with a UL-94 V-0 flame retardant rating, Bambu PPS-CF provides exceptional fire resistance and safety. This makes it particularly suitable for applications in electronics, automotive, and industrial systems where flame resistance and long-term reliability are critical.

Printing Tips
Bambu PPS-CF Printing Guidelines:
- Nozzle Temperature: Recommended range is 310 to 340°C.
- Chamber Temperature: Recommended range is 60 to 90°C.
- Tip: Using higher values within these ranges can enhance the mechanical properties of the printed parts, especially in the Z-direction.
Drying Recommendations:
- Drying Temperature:
In a blast drying oven: 100°C to 140°C for 8 to 12 hours.
On an X1 printer’s heatbed: 110°C to 120°C for 10 to 12 hours (less effective than a blast drying oven).
- Important Note: Higher temperatures within the drying range yield better results, but do not exceed 160°C to avoid damaging the spool.
- Additional Information: For more details, refer to Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.
Storage Tips:
- Storage Condition: To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing.
- For Further Details: Please refer to Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.
Annealing Prints:
- If you need to anneal the prints, please refer to the Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and the WIKI section Work After Printing Finished.
