Filament Properties
Strength
Resistance to bending before failure. A higher value means the material withstands a greater bending load.
Bending Strength - XY
—
—
—
—
Stiffness
Resistance to deformation under load. A higher value means the printed part flexes less.
Bending Modulus - XY
—
—
—
—
Layer Adhesion
Strength of the bond between printed layers in the Z direction. A higher value indicates stronger layer bonding.
Tensile Strength - Z

—
Heat Resistance
Heat deflection temperature under a 0.45 MPa load. A higher value indicates better shape retention under heat and load.
HDT, 0.45 MPa

—
Water Absorption
Moisture absorbed at saturation. A lower value is generally better for dimensional stability and consistent printing.
