Here, the choice largely depends on what type of material (metal or plastic) your part needs to be made of. For plastic parts, I would recommend the following materials:

• ULTEM 9085 and ULTEM 1010 for FDM
• PA 12 for SLS or MJF
• Heat-resistant ones like PC for SLA after thermal post-processing
• CE 221 (Cyanate Ester) for Carbon DLS

For metal parts, the heat-resistant materials I would recommend for DMLS are:

• Aluminium AlSi10Mg
• Stainless steel 316L
• Inconel 718

You can check out our dedicated article on heat-resistant materials for 3D printing and compare the properties of the materials.

My 3D prints need to withstand temperatures up to 150 degrees. What material should I choose?
