About

ULTEM 9085 is a flame-retardant high-performance thermoplastic for digital manufacturing and rapid prototyping. It is ideal for the transportation industry due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and its FST (flame, smoke, and toxicity) rating. ULTEM 9085 allows design and manufacturing engineers to produce fully functional parts that are ideal for advanced functional prototypes or end-use parts without the cost or lead time of traditional tooling. It has a lower resistance to chemicals but is highly retardant to flames (UL94 V-0 compliant).
