Vestakeep i4 3DF-T is a high-performance 3D printing material known for its exceptional thermal stability, mechanical strength, and resistance to harsh environments. Designed for demanding applications, it offers outstanding performance in both high-temperature and high-stress conditions, making it ideal for creating durable parts and prototypes. With excellent layer adhesion and minimal warping.
Testing and Development grade enables cost-effective process adaptation
Evonik provides what is known as a “testing grade” version of its PEEK filament for fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology. The testing-grade material has the exact same processing and mechanical product properties as the implant-grade material—but without the documentation needed for approval in medical device applications. This offers a cost-effective way of adapting the processing characteristics of the high-performance plastic for printing processes.
Medical 3D printing grade
VESTAKEEP®i4 3DF is perfectly suitable for additive manufacturing using fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology. This PEEK filament is an implant-grade material based on VESTAKEEP® i4 G, a highly viscous, high-performance polymer from Evonik impressing by its
– biocompatibility
– biostability
– x-ray transparency, and
– easy handling.
The filament is manufactured in a clean and controlled environment and undergoes strict quality management for medical materials to meet the requirements of ASTM F2026 (the standard specification for PEEK polymers for surgical implant applications).
