Solvay is a world leader in high-performance Specialty Polymers, we provide you with the broadest selection of advanced materials. Our offer is unique. We have developed an unmatched portfolio of more than 1500 different formulations available for you to develop future applications for your industry. Specialty Polymers are innovative, top-tier solutions and Solvay is the leader, offering the world’s broadest portfolio of these advanced materials. Our focus is on engineering innovation and we work with our customers at the forefront of their market.
In our dedicated centers of research and innovation, world-class polymer scientists develop strong, lightweight polymers, fluids and elastomers that provide competitive solutions, greater design freedom and added value for our partners. Superior mechanical performance, fatigue and wear resistance, and high-quality surface finish are just a few of the factors that characterize our portfolio.
We offer a range of optimized AM-ready filaments leveraging our large materials portfolio which can be easily purchased via our Solvay Additive Manufacturing Webshop (https://www.solvayamshop.com/).
Solvay’s portfolio of specialty polymer filaments for 3D Printing offers the highest levels of strength and stiffness, flame resistance, chemical resistance, and reliable performance in high and low temperatures. These polymers are durable, light weight and corrosion free alternatives to metal.
KetaSpire® PEEK Filament provides exceptional fatigue and chemical resistance and retains its excellent mechanical properties at continuous-use temperatures up to 240°C (464°F).
KetaSpire® PEEK CF Filament with 10% carbon fiber reinforcement for increased strength over unfilled PEEK.
Radel® PPSU Filament delivers the highest performance of our sulfone polymers, offering better impact resistance and chemical resistance than polysulfone (PSU) and polyetherimide (PEI) along with high heat resistance and excellent hydrolytic stability.
Solef® PVDF Filament is intrinsical of very high purity, provides long term performance up to 120 °C, including exceptional chemical resistance and outstanding UV, weathering and oxidation resistance. The print profile for Solef® PVDF AM filament is now available for free download at Ultimaker’s Marketplace.
