Toray Industries has introduced Toraypearl PA12, a spherical polyamide 12 powder that addresses surface and density limitations of irregular powders. This material delivers 2.5x better smoothness at Ra 7 um and doubles impact strength to 50 kJ/m2. With PA12 holding 70% of the polymer PBF market, this technology reduces post-processing for aerospace and automotive sectors. Sample testing began January 2026, marking a shift toward high-performance functional parts. 🚀 #3DPrinting #AM #Toray
