![]() ![]() ![]() PLA 3D prints for the most part look great.īut, there is a problem for 3D printing miniatures and models. PLA is stable at room temperature, responds to heat in a predictable fashion, melting quickly, and cools down fast back into a solid. If you’re already 3D printing with PLA, then you also know how reliable the material is for producing your objects. Indeed, if you’re a 3D printing enthusiastic and environmentally conscientious, this is probably the #1 reason to 3D print using PLA. Unlike most plastics, which are made of nonrenewable oil-based (e.g., petroleum) raw materials and harmful to the environment, PLA is a bioplastic derived from biological material. PLA is short for Polylactic Acid and is very popular for fused deposition model (FDM) 3D printing.įunny enough, did you know that PLA is usually made of food-stuff? PLA manufacturer’s use things like corn starch or sugar cane, which means that PLA is biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
