Key Features:

Excellent (cold) water solubility
Good thermal stability, resulting in less risk on deterioration/crystalizing inside the nozzle
Max thermal stability of 210° C, tested up to 256 seconds with no flow
Biodegradable once dissolved in water
Safe dissolution in tap water
Can be disposed of in the kitchen sink, or household drain as the material is “ok biodegradable water” certified
Good bonding to PLA-based materials and other (thermo)plastics that print within a similar temperature range

Application:

Reliable multi-extrusion 3D printing of complex structures that require a water-soluble support material
3D printing geometries with large overhangs, or complex hollow structures
PVA Molds

Description

AquaSolve PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) is a water-soluble support material for complex multi-extrusion 3D printing. AquaSolve PVA is a 3D printer filament with good thermal stability and can be 3D printed at relatively low temperatures. This makes AquaSolve PVA an ideal support material for PLA-based materials with good thermal and chemical adherence.

Note

Do not exceed a printing temperature of 225˚C, because AquaSolve PVA will then crystallize to quickly and it will no longer flow and/or dissolve in water. Printing with PVA materials does require a certain level of 3D printing expertise as PVA cannot stay too long in the hot secondary/support nozzle and needs to flow and by that needs expert tweaking to find the optimal “waiting temperature” for the material not to deteriorate/crystalizing in the hot secondary/support nozzle when not being 3D printed.
