PC Blend

Polycarbonate alloyed for printability. It gives up around 15 °C of heat resistance and returns most of PC's difficulty — warping, adhesion and nozzle temperature all drop to ABS territory.

Best for

  • First move up from ABS
  • Large functional parts
  • Tooling that must not warp

Watch out

Still needs an enclosure. It is easier than PC, not easy.

The properties on this page are values published in the named manufacturers' data sheets, measured on their grades to the standard printed against each row — not measurements of a ZORVA spool. Use them to compare material classes, not as an acceptance specification.

Passport

Ships with the spool. Published before you buy.

The same record on the label, on this page and in the box. Batch number included, so a bad print can be traced to a specific run.
