Hexcel has introduced HexPEKK EM, an electrically conductive, PEKK-based thermoplastic carbon fiber composite additive manufacturing material. It integrates electromagnetic performance within complex 3D-printed components for the commercial aerospace, defense, and military sectors, and components are flight-ready after printing.
The PEKK carbon fiber-blended material is formulated to meet the static electricity management, electromagnetic shielding, and radiation absorption requirements of advanced aircraft applications.
Secondary processing steps such as the application of conductive coating for the management of electromagnetic interference are eliminated.
