PISCATAWAY, NJ, USA, Apr 8, 2025 – Evonik, a leading innovator in 3D-printable polymers, has partnered with US-based 3DChimera for the distribution of Evonik’s selective laser sintering (SLS) powders in America.
The current agreement covers a select range of Evonik’s high-quality INFINAM powders, including variants that feature high flexibility, high temperature resistance, high stiffness, and a special carbon-black embedded powder. All INFINAM nylon powders are specifically optimized for industrial powder bed fusion.
“This partnership with 3DChimera is part of Evonik’s strategy to expand the reach of solutions in additive manufacturing technology,” said Jeffery Beach, director of the Long Chain Polyamides team in Evonik’s Americas Region. “We’re pleased to collaborate with 3DChimera and excited about working closely together towards the benefit of all our customers.”
The partnership will allow 3DChimera to provide technical assistance and guidance on the optimal use of Evonik’s SLS PA12 powders, so customers can maximize the benefits of these high-performance materials.
