Mitsubishi HIPS 3D Printing Filament
Categories: Polymer; 3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS); Polystyrene, Impact Modified

Material Notes: HIPS is an easy to print, high impact polystyrene filament with multifunctional properties. HIPS is an excellent support material in combination with ABS, because it dissolves in D'limonene and ABS remains unaffected. HIPS is suitable for detailed prints, but also for large objects because the material shows limited warping. Furthermore, HIPS is very light and durable, has good interlayer bonding, can be glued easily and the colors result in a smooth matt surface of the 3D printed objects. High impact polystyrene is therefore widely used in model building.

Features:

  • Dissolves in D'limonene
  • High impact-resistance
  • Can be glued easily
  • For matt, detailed, complex or large prints
  • Light and durable
  • Virtually no "warping"
Colors: HIPS is available from stock in five matte colors. Other colors on request
