PolyMax™ PLA

PolyMax™ PLA is an incredibly easy-to-print filament with improved mechanical properties, making it an excellent alternative to ABS.

What makes PolyMax™ PLA so different from other PLA?

PolyMax™ PLA features our nano-reinforcement technology which significantly increases its ductility. Ductility is the ability of a material to exhibit plastic deformation before fracture.

In simple words, PolyMax™ PLA will always bend instead of breaking. The opposite of ductile materials can be seen as brittle materials.

Printing and Drying Settings?

Printing Temperature: 190˚C - 230˚C

Bed Temperature: 25˚C - 60˚C

Printing Speed: 40mm/s - 60mm/s

Fan: ON

(Only if the material has absorbed moisture)

What is PolyMax™ PLA heat resistance temperature?

PolyMax™ PLA is a PLA based product and will display similar heat resistance temperature as regular PLA: ~60˚C (Glass Transition Temperature)

For similar printability with higher heat resistance we can recommend PolyMax™ PETG (~80˚C)
