PRUSAMENT PC Blend 0.97kg 1.75mm Prusa Orange

Are you looking for a durable and strong 3D print that will produce only impressive results? If your answer is yes, then the PRUSAMENT PC Blend Prusa Orange is all that you’ll ever need! This polycarbonate was specially made with carefully picked additives that reduce its warping and cracking while improving its adhesion to maintain all the excellent properties of polycarbonate.

Due to the unique development of this product, it is an excellent choice where tensile strength or impact resistance is needed. It is a good choice for mechanically stressed parts too. Additionally, it has high-temperature resistance when compared to other materials. Therefore it would be great for parts that are exposed to high heat.

The PRUSAMENT PC Blend comes in four colors: Natural White (Natural), Grey (Urban Grey), Black (Jet Black), and Orange (Prusa Orange). All PRUSAMENT PC Blend spools are available on standard 1kg spools and are perfectly wound and made with supreme precision. The materials are constructed above-industry standards with a diameter tolerance of +/-0.03mm. The PC Blend material is suitable for mechanical parts and the production of prototypes too.

Pros and Cons of the PRUSAMENT PC Blend

Pros

• It has fantastic electrical insulating properties.
• It displays very little hygroscopy. Therefore, you will not need to dry it before printing.
• It displays much better printing properties when compared to conventional polycarbonates. Therefore, the cracks in the layers are very rare. There is less warping during printing
• Fantastic adhesion to the printing sheet
• It does not contain styrene.
• When under mechanical stress, it displays good resistance to creep/cold flow
• It displays fantastic dimensional stability compared to other PCs printed on a 3d printer without an enclosure.
• It remains flexible and tough even at low temperatures.
• It is impact-resistant.
• It displays excellent mechanical resistance, very rigid and strong material.
• It displays high-temperature resistance up to 235 °F/113 °C (In comparison, PLA will begin to deform at temperatures around 131 °F/55 °C)

Cons

• It will need a separating agent on the print sheet
• It will produce a minor odor during printing
• It needs higher temperatures on the heatbed and the nozzle

It is likely to warp when printing larger models.
