PolyLite ABS is made with a specialty bulk-polymerized ABS resin, which has significantly lower volatile content compared to traditional ABS resins. It delivers excellent printing quality with minimal odor during printing.

• Which 3D printer can print PolyLite ABS?

Depending on the size of the models you are trying to print, PolyLite ABS can required enclosed 3D printer, or even actively heated chamber.

In general a non-enclosed 3D printer with 90C bed temperature and 260C printing temperature can handle models smaller than fist size. For bigger prints you will required an enclosed 3D printer (~40-50C), for models bigger than ~15-20cm in any direction, it will require an actively heated chamber (~70C+).

Using proper bed adhesion can also help printing larger parts without deformation/warping issue.
We can recommend BuildTak or one of West3D’s build surfaces as adhesive and bed surface options.

• Can PolyLite ABS be post-processed with Acetone?

Yes, PolyLite ABS can be smoothed with acetone.
WARNING: Acetone is a dangerous chemical, please handle it with the necessary safety precautions.

We recommend PolySmooth as a safer alternative to create smooth surface models.
