Protopasta Protopasta Nebula Gold Dust Multicolor HTPLA Filament - 1.75mm (0.5kg)
Protopasta HTPLA combines the ease of PLA 3D printing with the ability to heat-treat your parts post-printing to increase their stiffness at higher temperatures. It can be heat treated in an oven at 100-120C (200-250F) to increase stiffness and reduce warping with the best results seen on flat and/or supported parts with 100% infill.
- Prints easily like PLA
- No Hardened Nozzle
- Easy Heat Treat Process

HEAT TREAT FOR GREAT PERFORMANCE
PLA and HTPLA are great for many applications, just exactly as they're printed, but once they're stored above 50C, they start to break down. Luckily, the HT is for Heat Treat! Or is it High Temp? Either way, it's a huge improvement to the part's thermal stability--up to three times standard PLA, or non-annealed HTPLA.
Simply place your printed part in your oven for a few minutes (larger parts will need longer times) at 100 - 120C (200 - 250F), and the material will crystallize and become much stiffer. Keep in mind this may warp some architectures of printed parts, so experimentation is required. Best results are with flat and/or supported parts with 100% infill.
HTPLA could be the solution to your printing needs.
NO HARDENED NOZZLE REQUIRED
Many composite materials require a hardened nozzle, but not this filament! This material prints perfectly with a standard brass nozzle without any additional wear compared to standard filaments. This material is perfect for those who want to expand their filament library without having to make hardware changes on their printer, as it offers expanded possibilities without any drawbacks or complications.
Questions
Bonjour, est-ce que ce produit peut être livré vers la France ? Merci
what is the differences between this filament and the Quantum dual color?
I emailed MH directly with the same question, and this was the response. "While the quantum PLA gives off a nice sheen it technically does not fall into the silky category. Although some of the colors from both lines are the same the silky dual-color has a much higher sparkle/shine to it."
I was wondering the same thing
