Matter3D Basics PLA Series is a new formulation created by the scientists at Matter3D. The genesis of this material was linked to the feedback we had gotten from our partners regarding the Performance PLA Series. The Basics series is a more printable version of the Performance line and is primarily designed for cosplay and prototyping.
The Basics PLA is also very impact resistant. It is a PLA+. We have added impact modifiers to the material that lower the modulus significantly compared to virgin PLA.
The Basics Series - PLA Matte line adds a dulling effect - to the Basics material. These products are ideal for hiding layer lines, cosplay, or products where aesthetics are especially important. The Matte line is NOT anymore abrasive than the Unfilled Basics PLA.
The Basics PLA series is a highly printable material that is lower in bulk crystallization, stiffness, temperature resistance (<65°C), and more impact resistant than the Performance Series. It is essentially a more amorphous PLA material that is extremely forgiving when printed. This material requires no modifications to even the basic 3D printing setups. It is designed to be used by anyone, anywhere, on any machine.
Matter3D's Basics PLA series is not able to be annealed. This is a result of the lower crystallinity of the bulk polymer. Bambu compatible plastic spools are compatible with the AMS units are designed to seamlessly integrate into your workflow without issues.
