BASF Ultrafuse PP

Ultrafuse PP is a high-performance thermoplastic with low density, high elasticity and high resistance to fatigue. The mechanical properties of make it an ideal material for 3D-printing applications, that have to endure high stress or strain.

Polypropylene or PP is widely known as a solution for automotive applications, (household) appliances and liquid containers. PP is one of the most used materials in the world due to its versatility and ability to engineer lightweight tough parts. The Ultrafuse PP filament enables these solutions to be available for professional 3D-printing. To provide users with valuable information we have collected data regarding the mechanical properties of the printed material according to the ISO standards.
