FormFutura - Volcano 150C Traffic Black High Temp PLA 1.75mm - 4.5kg

Volcano PLA 150C is a next generation bio performance material engineered for high demand applications.

Designed to exceed the mechanical strength and thermal resistance of many traditional oil based polymers, it sets a new standard in sustainable engineering grade filaments.

As the name suggests, Volcano PLA 150C features an outstanding long term heat resistance of 150 °C, achieved without annealing or post processing, for low weight bearing parts.

This makes Volcano PLA 150C ideal for functional prototypes and end use components exposed to elevated temperatures. Manufactured from 100% renewable resources.Volcano PLA 150C is fully compostable and environmentally responsible.

It delivers an exceptional balance of rigidity, high impact resistance, and superior heat tolerance. All while maintaining the printability and ease of use of standard PLA.

No specialized equipment is required to achieve high quality results. Choose Volcano PLA 150C for professional grade 3D printing applications that demand performance, reliability, and sustainability.

Important key features Thermal stability up to 150 °C without annealing High stiffness, toughness, and heat resistance Semi matt surface finish 100% sustainable, oil-free, and compostable Biodegradable according DIN EN 13432.

Suitable applications High temperature functional parts. Heat resistant fixtures or tools. Engineering prototypes. Durable and sustainable end use parts. Automotive components.

General printing guidelines *Nozzle size: ≥ 0.15mmLayer height: ≥ 0.06mm Adhesive: EasyFix Nr.

I Print temp: ± 195 – 225° C *Fan speed: 50-100% Drying: Not necessary Heat bed: ± 45 – 60° C *Enclosure: Not necessary Experience level: Beginner*) Above displayed settings are meant as guidance to find your optimal print settings.

These ranges in settings should work for most printers, but please do feel free to experiment outside these ranges if you think it is suitable for your printer.

There are a lot of different type of printers, hot-ends and printer offsets that it is extremely difficult to give an overall one-size-fits-all setting.*) Flow rate depends on printing speed and type of hotend used.

For full metal hotends a lower flow rate is recommended and for high printing speeds a high(er) flow rate is recommended.

For Volcano PLA 150C we recommend a printing speed of around 45 - 60mm/s.Specifications Material propertiesDensity (23°C) Mechanical properties Tensile strength at yield Tensile strength at break Elongation at break Tensile modulus Flexural modulus Impact strength (Charpy unnotched at 23 °C) Impact strength (Charpy notched at 23 °C) Impact strength (Charpy unnotched at -30 °C) Thermal propertiesHDT B Vicat softening point Long term heat resistance (without load) Crystallization temperature Melting point Typical value1.2 g/cm343 MPa 28 MPa 11% 2500 MPa 3300 MPa 15 kJ/m2 2 kJ/m2 13 kJ/m2 110°C 140 °C 150 °C 105 °C 170 °C Test MethodISO 1183 ISO 527 ISO 527ISO 527ISO 527 ISO 178 ISO 179 ISO 179 ISO 179 ISO 75 ISO 306 In house DSC DSC DIY colors Volcano PLA 150C comes in various “DIY colors” that are inspired by iconic tooling colors of tools that can be found in your local and online Do It Yourself (DIY) stores.
