Hattersheim am Main, November 07, 2019. Kuraray is launching a new biodegradable 3D printing filament manufactured under the Mowiflex™ brand offering a ground breaking and sustainable water soluble support material technology to 3D printing. The company is presenting the development at Formnext – Frankfurt am Main, Germany November 19 – 22, 2019.
What is Mowiflex™ ?
Mowiflex™ is a water soluble thermoplastic material based on PVOH made by Kuraray. The lineup include grades for various applications like 3D printing, sausage casing, injection molding, frac balls, etc.
What new possibilities does Mowiflex™ offer?
Mowiflex™ as a biodegradable water soluble support material for 3D printing shows excellent printability and cold water solubility combined with low moisture absorption from the atmosphere. This enables printing of complex structures, even including moving parts, in one piece and high quality print using FFF (fused filament fabrication) technology.
After printing is complete, the support structures can be easily dissolved in water, which can be conveniently disposed to drain due to the biodegradable nature of MowiflexTM. Our latest development allows for faster dissolving and better adhesion to various materials (e.g. PLA, PA, PVB, TPU, PETG).
