Features & Benefits
- Materials Features
- Benefits
Mechanically similar to ABS, Nanovia ASA benefits from better weather resistance and is adapted for outside use, allowing for prints subjected to the sun, cold, rain, and sea water.
- Advantages
- Shock resistant.
- Soluble in limonene.
- Easy to print.
- Good heat resistance.

Printing
Small parts are printable without an enclosure.
Post treatment
- For an outdoor usage, we recommend that you paint your print or submit them to an anti UV treatment, such as our Nanovia smoothing solution.
- Nanovia HIPS used as a support material can be removed manually or dissolved using limonene.

Safety & Health
- Health and Safety
Printing
We recommend printing Nanovia HIPS in a room equipped with air extraction or by using appropriate breathing equipment. Whilst printing HIPS produces a VOC derivative.
Post treatmentWe recommend wearing standard safety equipment during the post treatment of your prints made with Nanovia HIPS.
