Kaolin reinforced thermoplastic sinter powder: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Thermal instability during laser sintering causes uneven crystallization and structural defects in molded parts. Precise control of differential melting points between polyamide components and polyol additives stabilizes the melt phase to ensure dimensional accuracy.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Kaolin reinforced thermoplastic sinter powder?

Structural collapse during thermal processing

(6)evidences

Unsupported geometries and thermal instability lead to deformation or failure during the high-temperature densification phase. Preventing structural failure ensures dimensional accuracy and integrity of complex sintered parts.

High part density weight

(5)evidences

Amorphous and polyurethane powders often suffer from thermal warping and low structural integrity during the layer-by-layer sintering process. Improving dimensional stability ensures high-precision molded bodies with consistent geometric tolerances.
