General information
Components
Acetonitrile Butadiene Styrene based filament for Fused Filament Fabrication.
Product Description
ABS Fusion⁺ made with Polyscope XILOY™ 3D is an engineering filament which has been optimized for 3Dprinting. This special grade has been developed in collaboration with Polyscope Polymers - renowned for its
material solutions in the automotive industry. ABS is a thermoplastic which is used in many applications.
Although ABS has been classified as a standard material in 3D-printing it is known to be quite challenging to
process. ABS Fusion+ combines the properties of ABS with an improved processability. The filament is based
on an ABS grade which can be directly printed on glass without any adhesives or tape and has a higher success
rate of prints due to extreme low warping.
Delivery form and warehousing
Ultrafuse ABS Fusion+ filament should be stored at 15 - 25°C in its originally sealed package in a clean and dry
environment. If the recommended storage conditions are observed the products will have a minimum shelf life
of 12 months.
Product safety
Recommended: Process materials in a well ventilated room, or use professional extraction systems. For further
and more detailed information please consult the corresponding material safety data sheets.
