PPS-CF 3D printing
PPS-CF is carbon-fiber reinforced PPS, a high-performance plastic built for harsh places. It stays stiff in heat that would soften most plastics, shrugs off fuels, oils, and strong chemicals, barely absorbs moisture, and resists fire. It prints in matte black only.

Carbon-fiber reinforced PPS — a high-performance engineering polymer built for brutal environments. Shrugs off continuous high heat, aggressive chemicals, and fuels while staying stiff and dimensionally stable. Inherently flame-retardant. For under-hood automotive, industrial, and chemical-exposed end-use parts. Matte black finish.
Properties
- Strength
- Very high and very stiff, but brittle
- Flexibility
- Very low (rigid)
- Heat resistance
- Very high (about 240 to 265 °C under light load)
- Chemicals
- Excellent (fuels, oils, solvents, most acids)
- Fire
- Flame-retardant (UL 94 V-0)
- Finish
- Matte black only
- Density
- 1.35 g/cm³
Best for
- Under-hood car parts near engine heat and fluids
- Parts that touch fuel, oil, solvents, or harsh cleaners
- Electrical and electronics parts that need flame resistance
- Industrial jigs, fixtures, and brackets that must hold their size
Consider something else for
- Parts that bend, snap together, or take hard knocks (it's stiff but brittle, so choose Nylon or PC Blend)
- Budget or cosmetic prints (PLA or PETG costs far less)
- Anything that needs a color other than black
