Introducing Kodak HIPS Filament
HIPS is as easy to print as ABS, although much less likely to warp, which makes it another great alternative to classic PLA for models requiring higher impact resistance. It works as a great dissolvable support material because it is easily removed with a limonene solution. The material is a good electrical insulator, which can be sanded and painted with acrylic paints.
This polymer complies with section 201(s) of the US Federal, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and Parts 182, 184 and 186 of the Food Additive Regulations.
Benefits
- A filament with some of the best characteristics of PLA and ABS
- High-resolution smooth surfaces
- Great interlayer adhesion
- Resistance to shattering, low warp
- It can be used as a dissolvable support material for ABS (soluble with limonene, citric acid)
