WHAT IS SILK PLA?
We believe Monocure 3D has the best Silk PLA Filament on the market. It is highly recommended for making decorative objects because of its unique shiny and silky look. Like all our Filament, this has a very strong adhesion to the print bed. The end results will amaze you!
PLA plastic or polylactic acid is a vegetable-based plastic material, which commonly uses cornstarch as a raw material. This material is a thermoplastic aliphatic polyester and it is the primary natural raw material used in 3D printing. PLA is a fully biodegradable thermoplastic polymer consisting of renewable raw materials. Among all 3D printing materials, PLA is one of the most popular materials used for additive manufacturing.

APPLICATION & TIPS
Perfect for decorative objects because of its unique shiny and silky look.
For best results, the thinner the layer, the slower you print, the higher quality you will get.
PLA filament is an easy-to-use material that will print perfectly with a standard type of nozzle.
For good adhesion to the print bed and easy removal, we recommend installing a WHAM BAM Flexible Build System on your FDM Printer.
