Bison3D Universal HIPS 3D Filament, 3mm, 1kg/roll, blue

HIPS 3D Filament, 3mm, 1kg/roll, brown. The main application for HIPS 3D Filaments are for packaging and disposable supplies, instrumentation, household and entertainment supplies and for the construction industry. HIPS stands for High Impact Polystyrene and is actually similar to ABS, with the exception that HIPS uses Limonene as a solvent. Therefore you can use HIPS as a support which can then easily be dissolved by placing your print in Limonene. This is a fantastic alternative to sanding away regular support . You can either print with HIPS by itself, or if you have a dual extruder you can use it as a dissolvable support , while you print the rest of your item with ABS for example. WARNING: This Filament – when used for 3D printing – can expose you and others in the same room to styrene, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer. www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. ALWAYS USE THIS PRODUCT IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA.

Dissolves away in limonene; Best 3D printer support material for ABS because of similar printing temperatures
