PLA Carbon
Material characteristics
- improved hardness and rigidity as compared to the pure PLA
- higher plasticisation temperature
- improved abrasion resistance
- much higher compression resistance
- good mechanical properties
- high aesthetic, matte surface quality
- no shrinkage after cooling
Applications
- items which need to be very rigid and hard while maintaining dimensional accuracy
- manufacturing of spacer components subject to static compressive loads
- concept and demo prototyping of designed finished and semi-finished products
- ornamental parts (aesthetic properties)
- external structural components which emphasise the product
- prototyping
