ThermaX™ PSU 3D Printing Filament

Polysulfone (PSU) is a high-temperature aromatic sulfone polymer. PSU has excellent thermal and chemical resistance, making it well suited for demanding applications in automotive, aerospace, electronics, defense, food service, industrial, plumbing, medical, semi-con applications.

PSU is an excellent alternative to ULTEM™ 9085.

While having a lower cost per kilogram and lower density (giving you more filament per kilogram as well), it maintains superior thermal properties. Its higher Tg and HDT give it higher strength and stiffness at elevated temperatures.

Gearbox HT2™ 3D Printer: Print industrial-grade parts using our PSU filament and more with the new Gearbox™ HT2 High-Temp 3D Printer.
