Mitsubishi PVA Polyvinyl Alcohol, Filament
Categories: Polymer; 3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing Polymer

Material Notes: PVA filament is quickly soluble in water, bonds well to plastics, and prints easily. Therefore, it is an excellent supporting material for dual extruder 3D printing. This polyvinyl alcohol-based filament is nontoxic, and biodegradable once dissolved in water. PVA is also available in colors and has a high tensile strength for applications other then supporting material.

Features:

  • Excellent water solubility
  • Easy to print at low temperature
  • Good bonding to various plastics such as PLA
  • Biodegradable when dissolved in water
  • Limited smell
Colors: PVA is available from stock in its natural color. For specific applications, PVA is available in colors on request
