Properties of HTPLA Iron from the plastic family PLA
Proto-pasta Rustable Magnetic Iron Metal PLA Composite is actually ferromagnetic. It responds to magnets and behaves similarly to pure iron! Encapsulated in plastic, the iron maintains a stable matte, cast metal finish as printed, but can be rusted when desired.
- Weighted feel with 1.5x the density of standard PLA Rustable to create modern artifacts in a few easy steps
- Attracts magnets (neodymium type recommended for strongest attraction)
- Induction at magnetic saturation, about 0.15 Tesla
- Relative (to air) Permeability - between 5 and 8 independent of frequency up to 1 MHz
- Permeability - between 62E-7 and 100E-7 H/m independent of frequency up to 1 MHz
- Magnetic Iron PLA is slightly more brittle than standard PLA and requires extra care when handling.
