Description
The Kimya PLA-HI 3D filament is a biosourced polymer obtained from corn starch. Polylactic Acid -HI (PLA-HI) is aHigh Impact‚� filament offering increased impact resistance: it was formulated to be four times more resistant to impact than standard PLA. PLA is easy to print and is odorless. It can be used to create functional prototypes, spare parts, architectural models and in other forms of modeling. The Kimya PLA-HI 3D filament has the following properties:
- Easy to print
- Impact resistance
- Odorless
- Biosourced material
- Food contact under EU10/2011
- Complies with the REACH standard
