Recycled filaments

OWA PS (Polystyrene-HIPS) These are 100% Recycled filaments, not off cuts, end of spool runs, or even some current filaments advertised as recycled, (that are virgin filaments which have never yet been used, let alone re-used)! OWA Armor have been recyling ink cartridges for several years, who are looking to use their advanced recycling technologies in the 3D Desktop printing arena. The first of these 100% recycled filaments is the new colour range of PS (Polystyrene filaments), which can also be used as a support filament.

Alloy 910 is a measurable advancement in 3D Printing materials technology from taulman 3D.

taulman Alloy 910 is the combined effort of chemical companies, extrusion manufactures and taulman 3D to specifically develop a single material to meet as many high performance 3D Printing needs as possible. With a combined tensile strength higher than the strongest co-polyesters, the durability of Nylons, a shrinkage factor that rivals our t-glase, a vast range of chemical resistance and a ~82C working range, you now have one solution easily printable at 250C-255C.

PCTPE stands for "Plasticized Copolyamide TPE" or a chemical co-polymer of highly flexible nylon and TPE

(thermoplastic elastomer). PCTPE has several unique features that allow any user to print a highly flexible part with the added durability of our nylon polymers. This combination of polymers was developed specifically to allow anyone using current FFF 3D Printers to print parts from durable prosthetics to complete cosplay wearable outfits, cell phone enclosures as well as highly flexible utility/industrial parts. The flexibility of PCTPE means that the end parts will also have the smooth lustrous texture of nylon.

printing material. Flexible when just a thin layer, but with very high inter-layer adhesion. Its low friction coefficient and high melting temperature makes it an excellent choice for printing functional and technical parts. Unlike ABS and PLA filaments Nylon FX256 is far less brittle and therefore stronger.

NinjaFlex flexible filament leads the industry thanks to its superior flexibility and longevity compared to

non-polyurethane materials. Its consistency in diameter and ovality (roundness) outpaces other polyurethane materials. Made from a specially formulated thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) material, this patented technology boasts a low-tack, easy-to-feed texture. The result is uniquely flexible, strong prints ideal for direct-drive extruders. A wide range of vibrant colours are available.

POROLAY GEL-LAY by Kai Parthy of Germany is a new filament which has a jelly-like feature. This material is made from a rubber-elastomeric polymer and a PVA-component. That means that part of this filament is water soluble.

POROLAY LAY-FOMM 40 & 60 by Kai Parthy of Germany is best characterized as foamy and highly porous. This material is made from a rubber-elastomeric polymer and a PVA-component. That means that part of this filament is water soluble. Once you rinse this material in water, the PVA component dissolves and the rubber polymer remains as your micro-porous object. LAY-FOMM 60 feels like soft rubber with holes and is therefore ideal for printing soft rubber-like objects, such as bendable suits and sponge-like objects, ink-reservoirs, bio38


cells, micro-foam and elastics. Lay-Fomm 40 for soft objects (~ 60 Shore A) and Lay-Fomm 60 (~ Shore A60) for slightly bending-rigid objects.

POROLAY LAY-FELT by Kai Parthy of Germany is a new filament which has felt-like features, it contains stiff and soft felt-fibers. This material is made from a elastomeric polymer and a PVA-component. That means that part of this filament is water soluble. Once you rinse this material in water, the PVA component dissolves and the elastomeric polymer remains as your stable fibrous object. The felty feature of this material makes it ideal for printing filters, 3D membranes, semipermeable membranes, artificial paper and bendable felty fabrics. LAY-FELT is also very suitable for use in water treatment membranes, or in electro-cells.

LayBrick by Kai Parthy of Germany is perfect for sculpture modelling and architectural pieces. Looks like a soft and smooth clay in its filament form. Can be printed to have a rough or smooth texture, depending on the temperature it is extruded by.

39

t-glase PETG by taulman 3D - Strength - First, as it’s a taulman 3D industrial line, it has to be strong and we, along with our local testers and some selected industrial testers, are very pleased with the strength of t-glase, especially with the larger nozzles used on industrial units. FDA approved – t-glase is specifically made of FDA approved polymers for direct food contact/containers. This includes cups and other liquid storage parts as well as utensils. Environmental - While t-glase is not biodegradable like PLA, it is a material that’s considered 100% reclaimable. Thus the new “struders” that convert failed prints back to usable line work perfectly with t-glase. If you have a “struder”, you can actually mix in 12% of the total weight in discarded clear water bottles. Available in six colours.

Fluorescent PLA's & ABS by Reprapper Tech Ltd.

There are several manufatured filaments that have been classified as food friendly by the US Food and Drug administration Bureau/Service and other awarding bodies across the globe.

t-glase by taulman 3D is made from the highest optical quality PETT material.

Unlike other polymers, some PETT, including t-glase are not considered “transparent”.
