What is PLA? Polylactic acid (PLA) filament is a thermoplastic polyester made from renewable resources like corn starch or sugarcane. It's a common material used in 3D printing.
Properties:
-
Biodegradable: PLA can be broken down in composting plants or under certain conditions with high heat
-
Recyclable: PLA can be melted and reused without significant damage
-
Non-toxic: PLA doesn't emit toxins or fumes when melted
-
Low shrinkage: PLA doesn't deform after cooling, making it ideal for 3D printing
-
Low melting point: PLA has a melting point between 80 and 150 °C (176 - 302°F)
-
Good layer adhesion: PLA has excellent layer adhesion, making it good for creating intricate designs
Uses:
-
3D printing: PLA is a popular choice for 3D printing because of its low melting point, minimal warping, and excellent layer adhesion
-
Rapid prototyping: PLA is ideal for fast prototyping because it's easy to print with
-
Artistic designs: PLA is good for creating intricate artistic designs because of its print quality and dimensional accuracy
Production:
- PLA is made by breaking down the starch in plants like corn or beets into lactic acid
- PLA is the second most produced bioplastic
