NYCOA Grades for Filament 3-D Printing
NYCOA has developed and refined several materials in the NYCOSIX and NYCOADAPT product families for the application of nylon as a performance filament substrate for 3D Printing (also sometimes referred to as additive manufacturing) All highly suitable nylon 6 copolymers and alloys for 3-D printing filament application.

These NYCOA materials are easily extruded into monofilament for filament fed 3-D printers or ground into fine powders for Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) printers. Nylon grades are less brittle and stronger than PLA and ABS. The interlayer adhesion of nylon results in high quality homogeneous 3-D molded components comparable to injection molded nylon components. Hence, filaments made from NYCOA nylon grades are used to manufacture 3-D printed functional products with excellent chemical resistance and high-temperature capabilities.
