Product catalog summary
Overview of HIPS Filament:
HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is a versatile filament known for its ease of printing and multifunctional properties. It is particularly effective as a support material when used with ABS, as it dissolves in D’limonene without affecting ABS. HIPS is suitable for both detailed and large prints due to its minimal warping, lightness, durability, and excellent interlayer bonding. It can be easily glued and produces a smooth, matte finish, making it popular in model building.
Key Features:
  • Dissolves in D’limonene
  • High impact resistance
  • Easy to glue
  • Ideal for matte, detailed, complex, or large prints
  • Lightweight and durable
  • Minimal warping
Available Colours:
Refer to the website for the range of available colours.
Storage Recommendations:
Store in a cool, dry place (15-25˚C) away from UV light to significantly enhance shelf life.

Datasheet HIPS-1

ddclrcip HIPS HIPS is an easy to print, High Impact Polystyrene filament with multifunctional properties. HIPS is an excellent support material in combination with ABS, because it dissolves in D'limonene and ABS remains unaffected. HIPS is very suitable for detailed prints, but also for large objects because the material shows very limited warping. Furthermore HIPS is very light and durable, has good interlayer bonding, can be glued easily and the colours result in a smooth matt surface of the 3D printed objects. High Impact Polystyrene is therefore widely used in model building. Features: • Dissolves in D'limonene • High impact-resistance • Can be glued easily • For matt, detailed, complex or large prints • Light and durable • Virtually no 'warping' Colours: Check the website for available colours. Additional info: Storage: Cool and dry (15-25°C) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
