Spectrum PLA Thermoactive red 0,5 kg

Thermoactive PLA Filament

Thermoactive PLA filament is a unique material that changes color depending on temperature. This PLA filament offers an interesting visual effect, being red at room temperature and changing to white when heated. It is ideal for creating interactive models and objects with a variable appearance.

Key Features

Thermoactive effect: The filament changes color from red to white when heated above 31°C.

Easy printing: It maintains typical PLA properties, allowing smooth printing even on basic 3D printers.

Dimensional stability: Minimal shrinkage ensures print accuracy and dimensional stability of prints.

Technical Specifications

Areas of Application

• Interactive models: Ideal for creating objects that react to temperature.
• Educational aids: Suitable for demonstrating temperature changes.
• Decorative objects: Allows creation of unique design elements.
• Prototyping: Interesting use for testing temperature effects on products.

Advantages of Use

Unique visual effect: Color change adds an interactive element to models.

Wide range of applications: From practical applications to art projects.

Easy printability: Does not require special printing conditions compared to standard PLA.

Repeatable effect: Color change is reversible and can be repeated.

Packaging and Storage

The filament is supplied on a spool, vacuum-packed with an included silica gel packet for moisture protection. To maintain optimal properties, it is recommended to store in a closed container in a dry place.

Printing Tips

1. Use a printing temperature range of 190-210°C for optimal results.
2. A heated bed is not necessary but can improve first layer adhesion.
3. For the best thermoactive effect, print in a cooler environment (below 31°C).
4. Experiment with different wall thicknesses for various temperature reactions.

Thermoactive PLA filament offers a unique solution for 3D printing objects with a variable appearance. It combines the ease of use of PLA with a fascinating thermoactive effect, making it an attractive choice for creators looking for an innovative material for their projects.
