EDIT: nylon and other polyamides do need two things to be printed well: HIGH heat (that 300* on the box is no joke) and VERY Dry. If you don't have a dryer that can spool out while printing, you'll probably end up with stringing in a couple hours if the RH% is above 25-30.

In the case of PPA, it offers high(-ish/-er) temperature usage and good hoop stress (extrusion axis) strength. I'm hoping to try it out for rocket engine casings. The eSun PAHT-CF I have is brutal to print with due to moisture sensitivity but produces amazing parts. The Fiberon PET-CF I have is not as strong as the PA-CF, but the filament is so rigid I've had the filament snap in my extruder during retraction. It makes nice, stiff parts but the cross-layer cohesion is relatively poor. If the PPA can buy me another 20-30C HDT, have z-axis strength like PA, and be as stiff or better than the other two, it would be a win for the right components.
