(Mussolente, Italy), a global company in high-performance fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite production, announces the debut of its Xegreen 23-C20-3DP material, which brings advanced performance, sustainability and versatility. Xenia’s team will be available to provide detailed insights, answer questions and explore how this innovation can elevate attendees’ additive manufacturing (AM) processes.
Xegreen 23-C20-3DP, a polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PET-G) material with 20% carbon fiber reinforcement is suited to meet the demands of applications requiring high strength, minimal warpage and environmental responsibility.
Excelling in low-temperature environments, Xegreen finds suitability across various applications, from prototyping to master molds and finished parts. Beyond immediate advantages, Xenia says it guarantees long-term performance, ensuring durability and stability over time.
Xegreen 23-C20-3DP offers a distinctive set of features. Its formulation, for example, minimizes warpage during the printing process. Designed to withstand harsh chemicals, the material is also ideal for the carbon fiber lamination process, thanks to its resistance to resins and release agents. Committed to sustainability, the grade is manufactured from 100% fully recycled materials.
