PLA SATIN is a PLA based material developed for its silky and smooth shine. It increases the perception of color brilliance and disperses light when viewed from different angles giving a unique glossy effect. Slower printing and low temperature improve the silky effect. The satin surface creates beautiful reflection in printed objects.
PLA SATIN features:
- High light reflection
- Smooth and silky
- Fantastic Satin look
- Deep colors

Additional info:
Due to its low tendency to warp PLA SATIN can also be printed without a heated bed. If you have a heated bed the recommended temperature is ± 50-60˚C. PLA SATIN can be used on all common desktop FDM or FFF technology 3D printers.
Please note: the parameters you use for printing with Satin can change the Satin effect on printed parts. Looking into the parameters and fine-tune the profile for your printer will benefit the Satin effect of your printed part.
Storage:
Cool and dry (15-25˚C) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
