PLA (Polylactic Acid) Filament is one of the two most commonly used desktop 3D printing materials (with the other being ABS). It is the ‘default’ recommended material for many desktop 3D printers, and with good reason – PLA is useful in a wide range of printing applications, has the virtue of being both odorless and low-warp, and does not require a heated bed. PLA plastic is also one of the more eco-friendly 3D printer materials available; it is a bioplastic, which means it is made from renewable natural resources, such as corn starch and tapioca products. As a biodegradable material it is much better for the environment and requires less energy to process compared traditional (petroleum-based) plastics, especially compared to petrochemical-based alternatives (such as ABS). Outside of 3D printing, PLA plastic is often used in food containers, such as candy wrappers and biodegradable medical implants such as sutures.
