This video details the testing of Polymaker PA12 CF Nylon filament for 3D printing functional parts, including AR-15 components. It covers tensile and impact testing of dry and wet, annealed and unannealed samples, highlighting the material's low water absorption, good stiffness retention, and smooth surface finish. Concerns are raised regarding heat deflection temperature and potential creep.

This video details a study on Taulman Glass Fiber Nylon's properties after various annealing and moisture exposure treatments. The presenter, an experienced 3D printing enthusiast, tests how air annealing, oil annealing, and ambient humidity affect the material's tensile strength and stiffness. The findings suggest that while annealing improves nylon's properties, moisture significantly degrades them, and oil annealing can mitigate some moisture absorption effects.
