PRUSAMENT Premium PLA 1kg 1.75mm Mystic Green

Deciding to buy yourself a 3D printer is the first step into a new world of creating countless objects. Figurines, cosplay materials, the possibilities are bountiful. The next step is choosing the right shop. Joseph Prusa founded Prusa research in 2012 and has become one of the most prominent figures in 3D printing. His work ethic for the 3D printing market has culminated into a workforce of over 600 employees, 9000 printers shipped monthly and becoming the fastest growing tech company in Central Europe.

In Prusa Research’s pursuit of perfection, the Prusament Premium PLA was created: making Prusa Research the only 3D printer manufacturer with its own filament production. Prusament PLA is an in-house made filament that has a closely tested manufacturing process. String diameter, color consistency, and mechanical properties are tested to ensure the optimal spool. Unlike the industry standard of 0.05 mm, Prusament PLA is guaranteed with a ±0.02 mm precision. To ensure quality satisfaction, Prusa gives the option to fully inspect all parameters of every filament spool by scanning a QR code located on the spool.

About PLA:

PLA melts at a relatively low temperature, 175 degrees Celsius. Unlike similar products, PLA can be heated past melting temperature with very little degradation. Like all plastics however, PLA can begin to lose its mechanical strength, this process begins at temperatures over 60 degrees Celsius. Additionally, PLA is soluble in chemicals like hot benzene and chloroform; when connecting multiple pieces, glue is the ideal adhesive. Due to being biodegradable and having low-temperature resistance, PLA is not ideal for outdoor use and should be handled with care. Even though it is biodegradable, a food-safe coating should be applied for objects made to be eaten from.
