MJF polypropylene 3D printing service

3D printing with MJF Polypropylene is becoming a popular replacement to injection molding technology. Read more about it below.

MJF Polypropylene

You can order your 3D printed parts in polypropylene, a common material for producing automotive projects, aerospace parts, and products with similar applications. It is great for manufacturing tubes and other parts for under-the-hood applications. 

Description

General Information PP is an excellent material for projects that require high chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and long term durability. Items like fluid tubes, chemical containers, and other parts of engines and exteriors or interiors of vehicles.
Strengths
  • Lower heat conductivity
  • High chemical resistance
  • Great surface finish
  • Low moisture absorption
  • Eco-friendly
  • Consistent performance
Weaknesses
  • Higher cost than regular 3D printed parts
  • Susceptible to dimension variations
  • Susceptible to oxidized degradation
