The base polymer — polyphenylene sulfide — is a semi-crystalline high-performance thermoplastic used in automotive under-bonnet components, chemical processing equipment and electrical hardware. Bambu Lab reinforces it with chopped carbon fibre for stiffness and dimensional stability, producing a filament that stays structurally useful at temperatures where PLA, PETG and even ASA have long since deformed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;line-height:1.7\"\u003eThis is a specialist material, not an everyday one.

every time.\u003c\/strong\u003e PPS-CF absorbs very little moisture compared with nylon, but the carbon fibre content still traps water and a wet spool prints with poor surface finish and weak layers. A standard filament dryer topping out at 70°C will not do the job here — you need a blast drying oven at 100–140°C. Load the spool straight from the dryer into a sealed AMS or dry box with fresh desiccant and print it the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;line-height:1.7\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnneal for real-world heat performance.\u003c\/strong\u003e Straight off the printer, PPS-CF is only partly crystallised. If your part will actually see sustained high temperatures, anneal it at 180–220°C for 6–12 hours — this significantly lifts strength and heat resistance. Expect a small amount of shrinkage during annealing, so print a test part first and dial in your dimensions before committing to a final run. Keep the chamber at temperature and part cooling low throughout the print: PPS-CF is sensitive to warping, and a draught across a hot part is the fastest route to a delaminated corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#f7f8ff;border-left:4px solid #020873;border-radius:4px;padding:18px 22px;font-family:'Open Sans',sans-serif;margin-top:24px\"\u003e\n  Stock held in Australia · Fast dispatch · GST-inclusive pricing\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Bambu Lab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53525443608865,"sku":"BAMBU-LAB-FILAMENT-PPS-CF","price":198.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5046\/9153\/files\/941e9f129f694236ac2451be67bc1df1.png?v=1789742589"}],"url":"https:\/\/ne3dprinting.myshopify.com\/collections\/pps.oembed","provider":"NE3D Printing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
