Compared with the nylon in PA-CF, its base polymer softens at a higher temperature and takes on less water from the air. The carbon fibre adds stiffness and keeps the part flat and dimensionally stable while it prints.

As it does, it gets slightly bigger and slightly more flexible. In a dry climate that is a minor effect, but Singapore's humidity means a nylon part is always taking on some moisture. For most brackets it does not matter. For a bearing seat, a press-fit or a part that has to line up with metal holes, the lower moisture uptake of PAHT-CF keeps it closer to the size you designed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2 id=\"good-jobs-for-paht-cf\">Good Jobs for PAHT-CF\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cul>\n  \u003Cli>\u003Cstrong>Car parts\u003C\u002Fstrong> like interior brackets, mounts and covers that bake in a parked car, and under-bonnet brackets away from the exhaust.\u003C\u002Fli>\n  \u003Cli>\u003Cstrong>Housings near motors and heat sources\u003C\u002Fstrong>, such as fan shrouds, motor mounts and electronics covers that run warm.\u003C\u002Fli>\n  \u003Cli>\u003Cstrong>Production-line jigs and fixtures\u003C\u002Fstrong> that see warm tooling all shift.
