Overview

Here is the new member of SainSmart TPU filament family, Luminous TPU. It’s as flexible as other TPU, but comes with a new cool feature, glowing in the dark. Flexible filament allows for repeated movement or impact without cracking. SainSmart TPU filament has been widely used from prototyping parts to making toys.

Specification:

Material: Rep-Flex TPU – Vacuumed Sealed with desiccant
Shore Hardness: 95A

Printing tips:
Recommended for printers with direct drive extruder, 0. 4~0. 8mm Nozzles. With Bowden extruder you might pay more attention to these tips: Print slowly with 15-30 mm/s printing speed. First layer settings. (Height 100% Width 150% speed 50% e. g. )Retraction disabled, this would reduce messy, stringing or oozing printing result. Increase Multiplier(Optional), set to 1. 1 would help the filament bond well. Cooling fan on after first layer.

The most intriguing feature of this TPU is glowing in the dark, it contains phosphorescent materials that glow in the dark after absorbing light energy. Glowing effect is stronger when exposed to UV light.
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is a subclass of thermoplastics which prints strong parts that are also flexible.
Compatible with most purse I3 3D printers on the market that accept 1. 75 mm filament. With Bowden extruder needs to print slowly.
With proper settings, TPU is easy to print thanks to excellent bed adhesion and the filament’s tendency to not warp. Also, no jamming and bubble
Great for a variety of projects, such as shoe insoles, watch bands, phone cases, drone parts and more!
