Mosaic ASA

Mosaic ASA Filament: Extreme Strength for Outdoor and Industrial Printing

Discover Mosaic ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) filament, the ultimate choice for your 3D printing needs requiring exceptional durability and reliable performance in harsh environments. Developed as a superior alternative to ABS, Mosaic ASA offers significant advantages, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.

Main Features:

• Unsurpassed UV Resistance: Unlike other filaments, Mosaic ASA is designed to withstand prolonged UV exposure without yellowing, fading, or degrading. Your prints will maintain their structural integrity and aesthetic appeal even outdoors.
• Extreme Hardness and Durability: Offers high impact resistance, stiffness and strength, making it perfect for functional parts that must withstand mechanical loads and stress.
• Thermal and Hydrolytic Stability: Excellent heat resistance (with a heat deflection temperature around 96-99°C) and hydrolytic stability, ensuring consistent performance under a variety of climatic conditions.
• Chemical Resistance and Anti-Static: Mosaic ASA filament is resistant to numerous chemicals, including acids and oils, and has anti-static properties, expanding its application possibilities.
• Quality Surface Finish: Prints made with ASA have a smooth finish that can be further enhanced by sanding with acetone vapor for an even more professional result.

Ideal Applications:

Thanks to its exceptional properties, Mosaic ASA filament is the perfect solution for:

• Outdoor Components: Signage, outdoor electronics enclosures, lawn and garden parts, and automotive components.
• Marine Sector: Parts and accessories resistant to salt water and sunlight.
• Tools & Equipment: Tool enclosures, jigs, and industrial fixtures requiring strength and stability.
• Functional Prototypes: Creating durable prototypes that must replicate end-use conditions.

Mosaic ASA Filament Specifications:

• Tensile Strength: Approx. 46.25 MPa
• Stiffness (Tensile Modulus): Approximately 2412 MPa
• Heat Deflection Temperature: Approx. 99.8°C
• Elongation at Break: Approximately 9.5%
• Format: Sold in 750cc units.

Printing Tips:

To get the best results with Mosaic ASA filament:

• Printing Temperature: Generally between 220°C and 250°C (for Mosaic ASA, often 240°C - 250°C).
• Heated Plate Temperature: Essential, between 90°C and 125°C.
• Plate Adhesion: Use hairspray, ABS glue, or an ABS/ASA slurry to improve adhesion.
• Print Chamber: A closed chamber is recommended to maintain a stable ambient temperature and prevent warping, although not always strictly necessary.

Choose Mosaic ASA filament for your most demanding projects and take your 3D prints to the next level of strength and reliability.
