eSUN eTPU-Antibacteria Filament - 1.75mm Yellow 1kg

Please Note: eSun has recently changed their filament spool material. You may receive a cardboard spool, instead of the plastic spools depicted above. This move means a more environmentally friendly design to their 3D filament spools which comfortably sit on your 3D printer's standard spool holder for smooth filament feeding.

3D printing filaments come in countless strange and glorious types that delight Makers with unique features, like this mind-blowing antibacterial filament! eSun's eTPU-95A is a highly functional filament to print. Resourceful Makers often DIY mechanical solutions and awesome phone covers with this semi-flexibale, highly impact resistance filament. But we all know how easily some things get dirty over time. If your print needs to remain bacteria free for your project or just for general healthiness, this eSun eTPU-Antibacteria Filament is remarkable! eSun has carefully designed this filament with an upgraded polymer that fights bacteria off and prevents mildew. On top of this different and cool feature, this filament is designed with flexibility in mind with a hardness rating of 95 Shore A, which is a lot harder than typical “Flexible” filaments. Instead of being flexible like the sole of a flip-flop, this hard flexibility is more focused on adding impact resistance and enhanced durability that PLA Filaments simply can’t achieve.

This 1kg spool of eSun eTPU-Antibacteria Filament is still heavily based on eSun's popular eTPU-95A, which sports strong flexibility, high resilience, and wear resistance. Antibacterial materials are necessary in the medical field or areas around your home. eSun eTPU-Antibacteria filament allows you to print sanitary flexible 3D accessories like mask holders and door openers. Professionals might even use this clean material to print specialised splints and prostheses. The wonders of 3D printing transforms many industries with amazing innovations. This antibacterial filament is rated against Escherichia coli. Staphylococcus aureus is as high as 99.9%, and the antifungal grade can reach grade 0, which is antifungal erosion. While this TPU is considered an advanced 3D filament due to the higher temperature needed to print, eSun eTPU usually prints smooth and quick when you know what you're doing.

While TPU is typically designed with a high elongation and low hardness for high flexibility, this semi-flex eTPU-95A filament is designed for clean functional applications rather than aesthetics. eTPU-Antibacteria smells clean and healthy, despite its luminous yellow colouring. The applications of this highly unique specialised filament is limited only by your imagination. Handle your 3D printed tools and models with peace of mind that not a shred of bacteria survives on their surface.

Shenzhen eSUN Industrial Co., Ltd was established in 2002 in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and has rapidly become one of the leading international suppliers of 3D Printing Filament. They specialise in research, development and production of degradable polymer materials, and have grown their catalogue of filaments to include PLA, ABS, PC, PVA, and a wide range of other polymers and copolymers.

Their list of exclusive filament formulas include unique materials like wood, aluminium, bronze and other materials to create highly specialised filaments that can stretch, bend, be moulded or otherwise behave in very unique ways. Their filaments are also commonly characterised by their absolutely round shape, extremely low diameter tolerance, uniform colours and impressively stable melting points. These characteristics, in combination with their long-term insistent policy of “Best Quality, Reasonable Price” has garnered them a large share of the market, with their reputation commonly preceding them within knowledgeable online and offline 3D Printing communities.

eSUN’s popularity in the industry has also helped to produce sustainable partnerships with many internationally famous 3D Printer manufacturers and distributors, with DIYElectronics having sole distributorship rights to provide their 3D Printing Filaments to South Africa and neighbouring African countries.
