Easy to Print: Just like regular PLA, PLA+ is easy to print with. It doesn’t require a heated bed, though one may be used for better adhesion. PLA+ is also less prone to warping and doesn’t require an enclosed printer, unlike more temperamental filaments like ABS.
Biodegradability: PLA+ retains the environmentally friendly nature of standard PLA since it is still derived from renewable resources like cornstarch or sugarcane. However, due to the added modifiers, it may take longer to degrade compared to pure PLA.
Low Odor: Similar to regular PLA, PLA+ produces minimal odor during printing, making it a good option for indoor use.
Versatile Use: PLA+ can be used for a wide range of applications, from simple decorative objects to more complex, functional mechanical parts.
Supports Complex Models: Due to its ease of printing, PLA+ is great for producing models with intricate details, including overhangs, fine structures, and complex geometries.
Cost: PLA+ is typically more expensive than regular PLA due to the additional materials and manufacturing processes involved in enhancing its properties.
Lower Heat Resistance than Other Materials: While PLA+ is more heat resistant than regular PLA, it’s still not ideal for applications that will be exposed to high temperatures. For projects requiring higher heat resistance, materials like PETG, ABS, or Nylon are better options.
Less Consistency Across Brands: Since each manufacturer has a different formula for PLA+, the performance and properties may vary from brand to brand. It’s important to test specific filaments to ensure they meet the required standards for your project. Aliz 3d Filament Pla Plus is a good choice.
