How much STRONGER is PLA+ really?
Рет қаралды 380,756
Күн бұрынPLA is still the most common 3D printing material but often not suitable for every application due to its brittleness and bad thermal performance. Modified PLAs known under the name PLA+, Tough PLA or Impact PLA claim to tackle some of those downsides. I thoroughly compared regular and modified PolyLacticActid in terms of printability, strength, stiffness, impact resistance, and thermal behavior. So is it worth spending the extra dollar for those materials? Let’s find out more!

Awesome video, as always. I have some analysis that people may find helpful. Toughness is the area under the stress-strain curve at 7:12. Based upon this, the significantly higher impact energy of PLA+ at 9:48 is expected. However, for most practical applications, the part is considered to have failed once it permanently deforms. This is where resilience comes in. Resilience is the area under the linear portion of the stress-strain curve. Looking at the graph unmodified PLA is significantly more resilient. Moreover, it has a larger strain before permanently deforming. This makes the unmodified PLA significantly better for the vast majority of parts. From these numbers, an easy rule of thumb is to not even consider PLA+ unless the part you are making is intended to be permanently deformed, like a bumper that needs to absorb impact energy.
@bengtr7352 3 жыл бұрын
I could not have said this better my self. A part is broken once it have made a permanent deformation. And it will probably be completly broken if you bend it back so it can perform the function it was made for. This is relevant when comparing PLA to other materials also. I always see a trend where everyone want ABS-like materials. But ABS is weak crap, but just because it have impact strenght people think that is all that matters.

PLA+ i use primarily eSun brand, and I find it is very resilient to moisture exposure - leaving normal PLA in my printer for more than 2 days ends up in broken filament which is difficult to remove. PLA+ seems not to matter as much, and i can leave it a week before it gets wet enough to cause problems.

I make small structural parts and have found PLA+ to be ideal for my applications. Independent of price, the Polymaker Polymax is the toughest. CC3D PLA Max is almost as tough but significantly lower cost; I tend to use that for the majority of my prints. eSun, IMO, is good in that they have a wider selection of colors but is noticably less tough than the CC3D. Thanks for verifying my findings and keep up the great work! Also, congrats on the little one (good luck sleeping, ha ha)!

The main benefit of PLA+ seems to be less warping and better bed adhesion, two of the things that discourage beginners often. I feel like these companies need to market it as beginner friendly instead of as an upgrade to PLA or a "tough" version. Most people starting out are printing nick-knacks and vases, so tensile strength and impact resistance are much less of a concern over printing properly. As people progress into functional parts they can move into pure PLA, PETG, and ABS depending on their needs.

bro this was very informative, the very first filament I used was PLA+ it just seemed like a good starter option for a beginner and it was a good brand on sale. I was told it performed ever so slightly better but I have been unable to compare it to know the facts thanks for all this information. BTW it was only 21.99 that was 1 dollar more then its cousin of the same brand. I would say the material stress factor was way better all around on the PLA+ because it stretches and I like the more of a matte finish, but in all honesty this preference kind of comes down to what you are printing and its use case. I don't think the one dollar more is too much to ask for a higher print success rate either.

You should test materials for creep, it's probably the greatest weakness of PLA other than low heat deflection temperature (but that can be fixed with annealing, seems like creep can't). I've had some PLA parts fail with stresses under half of the tensile strength, just over a long period of time.

Thanks for another great video! One test I'd really like to see is how easily different materials deform over time. For example, I've designed a simple filament clip (thing:2867427) that keeps the filament in tension around the edge of the spool. The ones I've printed in PLA become loose over time, while PETG seems to keep its tightness. It seems PLA will slowly deform under tension, and it would be cool to know more about this, and how other materials perform in this respect. Have a good one!

Congratulations on your baby! I tend to prefer PLA+ over regular PLA for the main reason you show - it is less brittle. I also find PLA+ changes shape less than regular PLA when annealing.

First off Stefan, congrats on the bundle of joy! Also, nice that you ended the test with the sensible advice of just printing with PETG instead of overpriced modified PLA. Again a sign that there's a new king in the FFF world: first there was ABS, then PLA and now we have PETG. Just my 2 cents. Cheers.
