PLA is one of the most commonly used 3D printing materials due to its ease of printing and low cost. It offers the following benefits:

Made from renewable resources like corn starch or sugarcane
Biodegradable and compostable under industrial conditions
High print resolution and good dimensional stability
Range of colors available

Technical Specifications

Tensile strength	50-70 MPa
Tensile modulus	3.5 GPa
Tensile elongation	2.5-6%
Flexural strength	100 MPa
Flexural modulus	3.6 GPa
HDT (0.45 MPa)	55-65°C

the key technical specifications for PLA

Ideal for: Concept models, prototypes, hobbyists, decorative pieces, non-mechanical parts.

Limitations: Low heat resistance, low toughness, limited chemical resistance. Not ideal for durable end use parts subject to high loads.

Let me know if you need any specific information on the properties and performance capabilities of PLA for your application. I can provide data on factors like tensile strength, flexural modulus, and izod impact resistance.
