Third-party mechanical data

295 MPa average flexural strength (3-point bending, 16 samples, ±53 MPa), 213 GPa elastic modulus and 3.9 g/cc density after sintering. You qualify Fila-MAT Alumina against measured numbers, not a filament-vendor estimate.

Debind and sinter parameters included

Every spool ships with 3DCeram's datasheet and the full print, debind and solid-state-sinter cycle (1650°C) for the M.A.T. FFF head, so parts reach target density on the first build instead of after trial-and-error.

  • Suitable for high-temperature environments

This filament is compatible with advanced manufacturing processes like 3D printing, allowing for the creation of complex, high-performance components with precision and efficiency. Its lightweight yet robust nature offers designers and engineers the flexibility to innovate in high-performance material development.

Applications:

  • 3D printing of heat-resistant components
  • Thermal insulation and heat shields
  • Electrical resistors and heating elements
  • Aerospace and automotive parts
  • Chemical processing equipment

All tests have been performed according relevant standards with calibrated test equipment at ESA’s technology centre in the Netherlands (ESTEC).

M.A.T. is an Additive Manufacturing (AM) solution for the production of complex geometries made out of metals and ceramics. With the M.A.T., 3DCERAM TIWARI utilizes the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique to produce ceramic and metallic parts with a 3D-printer working with special filaments. The 3D- printed parts are then eliminated of any non-metallic or non-ceramic component (binder) with the help of heat treatment at high temperatures, yielding pure and resistant parts suitable for all engineering applications in a matter of days. This cost-effective technique is suitable for a number of metals and ceramics, including metal-ceramic or ceramic-ceramic composites, and is capable of producing parts with high relative density.

Common questions

What is Fila-MAT Alumina and how does it produce ceramic parts?
Fila-MAT Alumina is a 3DCeram bound-ceramic feedstock — a 1.75mm filament loaded with alumina (Al₂O₃) powder held in a polymer binder. You print a green part on the 3DCeram M.A.T. FFF head like any thermoplastic, then remove the binder (debinding) and sinter the part in a furnace to consolidate it into a dense technical ceramic. The result is a functional alumina part made on an extrusion printer, without a ceramic slurry or resin system. Every spool ships with the debind and sinter parameters so the first build reaches target density predictably.
Which printer is Fila-MAT Alumina compatible with?
Fila-MAT Alumina is qualified for the 3DCeram M.A.T. multi-additive printer running its FFF extrusion head. The M.A.T. uses heated filament and print chambers that keep the highly filled ceramic feedstock extruding consistently, and it is matched to that machine rather than sold as a generic 1.75mm filament — which is why the print, debind and sinter parameters ship together. If you do not run an M.A.T. yet, Additive Plus can quote the printer alongside the feedstock so the whole workflow is validated from one supplier.
What post-processing does Fila-MAT Alumina require?
Like every bound-ceramic FFF material, Fila-MAT Alumina needs two steps after printing: debinding and sintering. Debinding removes the polymer binder from the green part, and high-temperature solid-state sintering at 1650°C fuses the remaining alumina powder into a dense ceramic. The debind and sinter parameters are supplied on the datasheet with every order, so you are not guessing cycle times or temperatures. Additive Plus can also advise on debinding and sintering equipment if you do not already run a furnace rated for 1650°C.
What mechanical properties can I expect after sintering?
After sintering, Fila-MAT Alumina reaches roughly 3.9 g/cc density, 295 MPa average flexural strength (standard deviation 53 MPa across 16 samples, measured by 3-point bending), 213 GPa elastic modulus, 39 W/m-K thermal conductivity at 20°C and a CTE of 6.4 ppm/°C. Exact values depend on your debind and sinter cycle; the full datasheet ships with every spool of Fila-MAT Alumina.
How much does a Fila-MAT Alumina part shrink during debinding and sintering?
Bound-ceramic parts shrink as the binder is removed and the ceramic densifies during sintering, so a green part is printed larger than the final dimension and scales down predictably. The exact linear shrinkage for Fila-MAT Alumina is defined in the 3DCeram datasheet supplied with every spool and is applied in the recommended slicer profile, so your CAD dimensions map to the finished part. A materials engineer at Additive Plus can walk through the shrinkage factor for your specific geometry before you commit to a production run.
What applications is Fila-MAT Alumina suited to?
Alumina (Al₂O₃) is a technical ceramic valued for hardness, wear resistance, electrical insulation and stability at high temperature. Fila-MAT Alumina lets you produce those parts — wear components, electrical insulators, high-temperature fixtures and lab or industrial ceramics — on an FFF printer rather than through tooling-intensive ceramic processes. Its 39 W/m-K thermal conductivity and 6.4 ppm/°C CTE suit parts that must hold dimension and resist heat. Talk to an Additive Plus engineer about whether alumina fits your service conditions.
