Main Materials Used in 3D Printing and Their Applications

High heat and impact resistance, ideal for tough environments and applications requiring strength.

Water-soluble, commonly used as a support material for complex prints.

Similar to ABS but with better UV resistance, making it suitable for outdoor applications.

Flexible and abrasion-resistant, used for parts that require elasticity and durability.

Provides a metallic finish and added weight, often used for decorative or functional parts.

Strong, durable, and heat-resistant, often used for functional parts and end-use components.

High strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance, ideal for mechanical components and wear-resistant parts.

Easiest to print, biodegradable, and low cost, making it ideal for rapid prototyping and decorative models.

Increases strength and stiffness of prints, ideal for applications requiring enhanced mechanical properties.

Combines ease of use with strength and durability, suitable for waterproof applications.
