HYMAG’IN acts as a pioneer in the development of filaments for 3D printing magnetic absorbers. The HYMAG’IN team is proud to unveil new results of thermal and mechanical properties of FILAMAG-F! These data are particularly impactful for industrial applications in aerospace, automotive and defense.

HYMAG’IN conducted mechanical tests, including tensile strength, 3-point bending, and shear, as well as a thermal test measuring heat deflection temperature under load

(HDT-B).

The characterizations presented here were conducted on parts printed with FILAMAG-F. The data reveals the unique mechanical behavior of FILAMAG-F between a thermoplastic and an elastomer. It combines the properties of stability with its density of 2.8 and flexibility with its hardness of 98 Shore A. Shore A measurements are made for elastomer materials. These properties allow FILAMAG-F printed parts to be easily used on parts with angles, corners or with rounded shapes; real geometries industrial companies have to deal with!

“The progress we've made through these new characterizations is truly exciting,” says Thomas Gaudisson, Research Engineer at HYMAG’IN. “We now have a deeper understanding of our magnetic filaments with their thermal and mechanical behavior. This level of insight is crucial for applications that require both durability and stability under operational stress in addition to electromagnetic wave absorption performance.”

This update of FILAMAG-F product sheet gives news insights for HYMAG’IN’s customers in the selection of materials for the production of electromagnetic absorbers. Electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical properties are the 3 main criteria you need to design your products.

EMC in electronics, antenna management, interference suppression between communication systems are now issues you can deal with confidence using FILAMAG-F!
