Description
Heat Stable Up To 130 Degrees C
PLA is the number one material for 3D printing, but parts printed in almost every PLA filament are subject to deforming if exposed to heat on a summer day. Filaments such as PETG, ASA or Nylon are capable of offering excellent heat resistance but many users from hobbyists to small businesses and schools, choose to print exclusively in PLA due to its extensive printer compatibility.
Polymaker™ HT-PLA sets a new standard for accessible heat-stable 3D printing, offering an easy-to-use PLA material that can maintain its shape in unstressed applications at high temperatures (up to 130°C) without sagging or deforming. Enjoy the ease of printing and eco-friendliness of PLA—with higher heat stability and no post-processing required.
Features
- Expand your horizons - Shake off the summer anxiety with Polymaker™ HT-PLA. Polymaker™ HT-PLA delivers a more life-proof PLA material, removing the risk of your projects melting on a hot summer day. The inherent softening temperature of Polymaker™ HT-PLA is extremely useful for hobbyists, market sellers and educators and also delivers a unique solution for sign writers, artists, film makers and cosplayers who typically like to use low-warp materials but have concerns surrounding the temperature stability of normal PLA.
- What is Heat Stability? - Heat stability refers to the ability to remain dimensionally stable at elevated temperatures under no or minimal external load other than its own weight. Polymaker™ HT-PLA delivers high heat stability up to 130°C right off the printer, no post-processing required! Generic HT-PLA require annealing to increase the softening temperature, a process which will often distort the model; with Polymaker™ HT-PLA you can simply print your model and it can handle up to 130°C in "unloaded" applications. No post-processing required.
- High Speed Capable - Polymaker™ HT-PLA is based on a high-speed PLA formula, enabling high speed printing up to 300mm/s and compatibility with a wide range of 1.75mm diameter machines. An enclosure is not needed for this high temp filament!
- Good Strength - At room temperature, Polymaker™ HT-PLA offers good rigidity and strength for functional parts however z-axis layer adhesion is lower than normal PLA, so not ideal for some single-wall prints.
- No Compromise - At its core Polymaker™ HT-PLA is a PLA-based multiphase composite, built around NatureWorks PLA so you can expect similar biodegradability, chemical resistance and the same low shrinkage rate as normal PLA. Combining Polymakers innovative R&D technologies, compounding and extrusion systems with Natureworks Ingeo® resins produces a reliable 3D printing filament to print beautiful and accurate models.
