ASA 3D Printing: Durable, UV-Stable Solutions from SGD 3D
Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate (ASA) is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its exceptional strength, UV resistance, and durability. At SGD 3D, we offer top-tier ASA 3D printing services, providing reliable solutions for applications requiring long-term outdoor performance and mechanical resilience.
Why Choose ASA for 3D Printing?
ASA offers a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for various applications:
- UV and Weather Resistance: ASA maintains its colour and mechanical properties when exposed to sunlight and harsh weather conditions, making it suitable for outdoor use.
- High Impact Strength: With impact strengths exceeding 56 kJ/m², ASA parts can withstand significant mechanical stress.
- Thermal Stability: ASA performs well at operating temperatures up to 91°C, ensuring dimensional stability in high-temperature environments.
- Chemical Resistance: ASA resists various chemicals, including acids and solvents, enhancing its durability in challenging conditions.
- Aesthetic Quality: ASA provides a smooth finish with low-gloss appearance, suitable for parts where visual appeal is important.
