    Conductive filaments from ABS/PLA and graphene composites

    Hi. I am new to this forum but I work for a startup company that focuses on creating conductive 3d printing filaments from various renewable sources. Currently we are looking to design a new polymer-based filament. Any suggestions or requests about our production capabilities are welcome and appreciated, especially if a specific product is desired. We are very flexible in terms of the diversity of products that can be made.

    Do you have a website? And your topic name is ABS/PLA and graphene composite, is it available now ?

    Thanks,

    http://www.3dxtech.com/ this company has some and will probably be a competitor to the original poster.

    Our website is http://zpolymers.com/. The ABS/PLA and graphene composites are currently in development and should be available within a few months

    conductive pla would be good.
    In black for the project I need it for :-)
    I don't care where it comes from. links anyone ?

    curious aardvark:
    The link for Zzyzx Polymers is http://zpolymers.com/. Currently we are looking at optimizing conductive composites from PLA/graphene components. Is there a specific product or project that you would need the filament for? Perhaps we can work something out together.

    So enlighten me, what does conductivity do and when would it be used? What types of products?

    @OP, I suggest you read my comments here:

    A conductive copper based filament that could be soldered to would be highly desirable, especially if it could be produced to have a low resistance factor.

    - I concur; if you guys could develop a conductive binder for a solderable element like copper particles you could have a real award winning product on your hands.

    We will be working on the conductive ABS/copper filament at Zzyzx Polymers in the near future. Would anyone like to be notified as to its progress when it becomes available?
