Technical Data Sheet
PLACF10 Filament
PLACF10 is a FFF 3D printing ﬁlament, which is produced using a polylactic acid modiﬁed
material containing 10% carbon ﬁber. PLACF10 has excellent dimensional stability,
bending strength and rigidity, and is as easy to print as PLA ﬁlament.

Features:

Cautions:
In order to prevent moisture absorption and contamination, supplied packaging should
be kept closed and undamaged. For the same reason, partially used ﬁlaments should bere-sealed before storage.
Because of the addition of carbon ﬁber, PLACF10 ﬁlament absorbs moisture more easily
than PLA ﬁlament, so it should be dried before being used. Using a hot dry air oven at60℃ for at least 5 hours is recommended in order to ensure the success rate and qualityof the printed model.
After the printing process, it is recommended to dry the model in an oven at 60°C for 1-3
hours in order to increase the strength of the model.
