Do you have in mind a blue lamp for your new 3D printing project? Do you need to print a clear object and in colour? Our SMARTFIL PLA CRYSTAL is one of the easiest filaments to print and with translucent finish to let the light flow through.
SMARTFIL PLA CRYSTAL comes in three different colours yellow, blue and red besides its multiple properties and applications, with an affordable price, is a high-quality material and it is easy to print, even for objects with complex details.
Is it still green?
Yes, SMARTFIL PLA CRYSTAL comes in three colours, but it is also green, because it is mainly made with renewable resources and have a natural origin like all our PLAs that is 100% biodegradable and compostable, as it is obtained through starch extracted from corn, beet or sugar cane, so it has less impact on the environment than other materials. Essentially, it’s a biodegradable plastic made of plants!
Thanks to its optical properties, objects printed from this filament have a high clarity and shyness, its main characteristics are:
- Good surface quality.
- Easy to work at high printing speeds.
- Easy to use for both home and office environments.
- Ideal for models and prototypes requiring aesthetic detail.
- High surface hardness.
- Suitable for ambient temperature applications.
- Low odor.
- Chemical resistance to oils and fats.
- Made from natural ingredients (100% biological based).
- Biodegradable by industrial composting.
- Safe to use in electrical and electronic equipment.
- High clarity and brightness.
- Maximum translucence in thin layers.
It is easy to use!
Its printing temperature is around 205 - 220 ºC and thanks to its low glass transition temperature (Tg) which is only 55 °C, it could have a little sub-cooling at room temperature and, therefore, it does not undergo deformation during printing, also a print base can be used at room temperature.
During its manufacture we use high concentrated dyes, this allows us to use a low percentage of pigments. This way we can maintain all the properties of PLA which results into a stable and perfect printing.
It is now easy to see why SMARTFIL PLA CRYSTAL is an ideal material when it comes to giving your parts a unique look, translucent effect in colours, easy to work with and extremely versatile, so buy it now!
