What is PLA Filament?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a thermoplastic polymer made from renewable resources such as corn starch, sugarcane, or other starch-rich crops. It is commonly used as a 3D printing filament for a variety of reasons, including:
- It's really easy to use
- Low warping
- Environmentally friendly - much more biodegradable when compared to other petroleum-based plastics

Questions
Could this filament be used as a main filament rather than just for support material? I am looking to make a design that will dissolve in water and is non-toxic. What are the temperature ranges where it will remain solid? How long does it take to dissolve in water?
@Will Cortez You need enough water (preferably warm) for the printed part to submerge. The degree of hydrolysis is 87% to 89%.
Does Matterhackers have information on the dissolution rate of the PVA filament? or how much water is required to dissolve a known mass of PVA? In addition, is there any information available about the hydrolysis level of the PVA material? Thanks!
I've had a heck of a time getting this stuff specifically to print and to dissolve. I've had customers say they used buckets of water overnight, or high temp water from a tap, all kinds of stuff. And for it to print I have to have it turned up to 240 or it won't feed. Has anyone else experienced this?
One thing I like to do (because it absorbs exponential amount of water while printing) is dry it for 2 hours like it says on the card that came with the filament and immediately load the filament into the printer and start printing right away(they say not to do this), this action ensures the filament won't snap while the tight feeder is squeezing it and be easy melt with low humidity for MOST of the print depending on length. For melting I print with almost 1mm thick interfaces and if they dont/can't break away I have to do the warm water soak in a small bucket for at LEAST 24-48 hrs because it's a slow melt, all the while replacing the cold water with warm about 2-3 times, it WILL melt, it's just slow about it. Hope this helps 🙏
