Abstract

The invention relates to a composition for the layer-by-layer building of a three-dimensional article by sintering of the composition brought about by electromagnetic radiation, the composition comprising a semicrystalline thermoplastic polymer powder and at least one wax, the wax having a dropping point which is greater than the crystallization temperature of the semicrystalline thermoplastic polymer, said composition in addition optionally comprising a flow agent.The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of said composition and also to its use for the layer-by-layer building of a three-dimensional article.
