ABOUT PLA<\/h3>\n

PLA melts at a relatively low temperature of about 175 degrees Celsius. Unlike so-called thermoset materials, PLA can be heated past its melting point multiple times with very little degradation. It\u2019s a hard material, but that also means it\u2019s somewhat brittle, and once it breaks, it likes to shatter.\u00a0Only this material is proven for 50 microns layer height.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, PLA is not a perfect material and, just like every other plastic, has some disadvantages. The low melting temperature also means\u00a0low-temperature resistance<\/strong>. Parts start to lose mechanical strength at temperatures\u00a0over 60 \u00b0C<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The combination of being both biodegradable and having low-temperature resistance means that it\u2019s\u00a0not ideal for outdoor use<\/strong>, not to mention low UV-resistance. Also, PLA is only soluble in chemicals like chloroform or hot benzene. So when connecting multiple pieces, you\u2019re better off using just glue.<\/p>\n

Even though PLA is biodegradable, and the material on its own is food safe, we do not suggest to repeatedly\u00a0drink or eat from your 3D prints<\/strong>. Because of the small fractures on the print surface, bacteria can build up in there over time. You can prevent this by applying a food-safe coating. When\u00a0post-processing PLA<\/strong>, it\u2019s better to use wet sanding. Without water you’ll quickly start heating the plastic by friction, it will melt locally and make it hard to keep sanding.<\/p>\n

Notes<\/h3>\n

This\u00a0PLA is made in-house by Prusa Research. We chose Natureworks 4043D resin which is the best and most widely used in 3D printing.<\/p>\n

1.75 mm filament is manufactured with precision of +- 0.02 mm<\/p>\n

Before printing, make sure the surface of heatbed is clean.<\/span><\/p>\n
