What is ASA?

Fused Deposition Modeling [FDM]

ASA filaments

are versatile thermo-materials that are suitable and versatile when used in 3D printing. It resembles ABS plastic but offers 3 advantages in terms of the properties: more mechanical properties, superior aesthetic qualities and

UV resistance.

The acrylic styrene acrylonitrile

is another 3D-printed plastic that shares the properties with ABS. This has also been developed as a replacement for ABS, which will be UV resistant through the use of

different kinds of rubber in the formulation.

ASA can be attributed

to high impact resistance, higher temperature resistance, and more difficult print speeds. The polymer is widely used for outdoor applications rather than ABS because it is more resistant to the UV and the rigours of the conditions. Because of its historical background, ASA has retained some printability disadvantages similar in nature to

ABS.
