PolyLite™ Series
PolyLite™ ASA is an alternative to ABS with an improved weather resistance. Its UV resistance and excellent mechanical properties make it the perfect choice for outdoor applications. PolyLite™ ASA has the same mechanical and thermal properties as PolyLite™ ABS with the ability to resist sunlight (UV) and weather in general. Its good weather resistance makes it ideal for parts that need to weather the elements.
What is the difference between ASA and ABS?
ASA is almost exactly the same as ABS with 1 major difference
The major difference is ASA is extremely good at weather resistance. (Resistance to UV light and environmental stress cracking)
Does PolyLite™ ASA requires an enclosed 3D printer?
Yes and no, the rule of thumb is the bigger your print (more than the size of your fist) the more the enclosure will be required for dimensional stability
