Material Overview
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a member of the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) family, combines the elasticity of rubber with the strength of plastic. Chemically, TPU is a block copolymer consisting of alternating hard segments (isocyanates) and soft segments (reacted polyol), and the manufacturer determines their ratio. More soft
segments enhance flexibility, leading to a shore hardness ranging from 60A (similar to mild silicones) to 80D (comparable to nylons or rigid PVC). TPU is versatile, available in various forms tailored to different manufacturing technologies, including filament for FDM and powder for SLS in 3D printing.

key properties
GF TPU 23 is a high-performance thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) 3D printing resin, offering the perfect balance of elasticity, durability, and versatility. As a member of the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) family, TPU combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength of plastic. Chemically, it is a block copolymer with alternating hard segments (isocyanates) and soft segments (reacted polyol), and the ratio of these segments determines its properties. The increased ratio of soft segments enhances flexibility, allowing for a shore hardness range from 60A (similar to mild silicones) to 80D (similar to nylons or rigid PVC). This 3D printer resin material is available in various forms, including filament for FDM and powder for SLS, making it highly versatile for 3D printing applications.
Key Properties:
- Elasticity
- High elongation and tensile strength
- Low-temperature performance
- Abrasion resistance
- Chemical resistance
GF TPU 23 is a perfect choice for 3D printing flexible and durable parts.
100% compatible with any SLS System
application
KSPA12 is primarily used in SLS technology, where it is selectively melted by a laser to create parts layer by layer. This process allows for complex geometries that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods.

FAQs
Application cases of nylon materials on EOS machines — are all EOS models compatible?
Our PA12 and PA12GF can be used on EOS models such as P760, P110, and P396.
Do machine parameters need to be adjusted to use them? If so, which parameters mainly need adjustment?
Yes, parameter adjustments are needed, mainly including melting temperature and heat deflection temperature.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of your PA12 and PA12GF materials compared to similar EOS materials?
In terms of stiffness, heat resistance, toughness, and elongation, our materials are lower than EOS. The main advantage lies in the price, as well as the mixing ratio of new and used powder, which helps reduce costs.
