Developing new polymer composites with special properties for 3D printing is one of the most attractive tasks. In our study, we have developed new polymer powders based on rGO-coated polyamide suitable for Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) printing. The obtained materials were characterized using optical microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and dielectric spectroscopy. The size distribution of the powder particles, the angle of rest after an avalanche, the compactibility (Hausner ratio), the optical properties (absorption and transmission) of the powder monolayer, and the electrical conductivity of the obtained materials have been studied. It has been shown that the developed powders are suitable for the use in the framework of the SLS method, and can be applied to remove static electricity, as well as in reflective screens for electromagnetic radiation.
