PolyMax™ PLA
PolyMax™ PLA is an incredibly easy-to-print filament with improved mechanical properties, making it an excellent
alternative to ABS.
Physical Properties
Tested with 3D printed specimen of 100% infill
Mechanical Properties
All testing specimens were printed under the following conditions:
nozzle temperature = 205 °C, printing speed = 60 mm/s, build plate temperature = 40 °C, infill = 100%
All specimens were conditioned at room temperature for 24h prior to testing
Recommended printing conditions
Based on 0.4 mm nozzle and Simplify 3D v.4.0. Printing conditions may vary with different nozzle diameters
