Material
Carbon Fiber ULTEM 9085
Carbon-reinforced ULTEM 9085 is a stiffer, stronger version of ULTEM 9085, though it is less ductile and weaker across the layers.

About
Carbon-reinforced ULTEM 9085 is ULTEM 9085 polyetherimide filled with carbon fibers, which raise stiffness and strength compared with unfilled ULTEM 9085 but reduce ductility. Like unfilled ULTEM 9085, parts are much weaker across the layers than within them.
Carbon-reinforced ULTEM 9085 is a good option for rigid, heat-resistant functional parts and tooling.
