PPA-CF vs PA6-CF?

Does anyone have experience printing PPA-CF and PA6-CF? I had read that “PPA-CF is 48% stronger” than PA6 if you get good layer adhesion, but I’m seeing conflicting info regarding impact resistance. Anyone have input who’s printed and used both?

    I have exclusively printed all my builds in PPA-CF from sirayatech and they’re absolutely flawless. Super clean, super strong. Can’t go wrong once you get it dialed in. I have a few builds in PPS-CF CORE the stuff that sounds like metal when flicked and that was more for the novelty effect, but they’re also stupidly strong and high temp rated. I almost don’t want to use any other material outside of PPA-cf.
