Spectrum PLA Electrically Conductive is a technical filament designed for applications where electrical conductivityis essential, combined with the ease and stability of printing typical of PLA. The material is based on PLA modified with carbon nanotubes (CNT), which significantly reduce surface resistivity and enable the creation of functional conductive components.

Printing characteristics

• Easy processing with low shrinkage

• No enclosed chamber required

• Recommended printing temperature: 210–230 °C

• Higher extrusion temperatures improve conductivity through better CNT dispersion

Electrical performance

Volume resistivity measured at different temperatures:

• 210 °C → 120 Ω·m

• 220 °C → 103 Ω·m

• 230 °C → 97 Ω·m

Higher temperatures provide better conductivity for demanding applications.

Material advantages

• Electrical conductivity due to CNT content

• Matte finish that hides layer lines

• Excellent dimensional stability

• Easy and reliable printing performance

Ideal applications

• Sensor housings and test components

• Antistatic elements

• Protective and functional enclosures

• Electronics prototyping

Spectrum PLA Electrically Conductive provides a blend of PLA simplicity and conductive functionality, suitable for all color variants.
