Instant Color Change Under Light! eSUN’s PLA-UV Color Change Material is Officially Launched
Following the release of the temperature-sensitive TPU material, eSUN has introduced another innovative material—PLA-UV Color Change.
1. Rapid Color Change with Adjustable Depth
The term “UV Color Change” is no exaggeration—this material changes color instantly under light exposure.
As shown in the image, PLA-UV Color Change is currently available in 7 colors. The filament appears semi-transparent beige but changes to different colors when exposed to UV light or sunlight. The color change is immediate. Similarly, in the absence of light, it reverts to beige within a short time.
Moreover, the depth of the color depends on the intensity of the light. Stronger light results in deeper colors, and under the same light intensity, longer exposure leads to a deeper color.
2. Excellent Printability
PLA-UV Color Change inherits the superior printability of eSUN’s PLA series. It prints smoothly with no visible layer lines on model surfaces, making it beginner-friendly and easy to use.
Additionally, PLA-UV Color Change meets the requirements for high-speed printing.
Below are the performance parameters and recommended printing settings for PLA-UV Color Change for your reference.
3. What Fun Applications Does PLA-UV Color Change Offer?
Innovative materials like PLA-UV Color Change can support and inspire creators. This material can be used in cultural and creative industries, film props, and the anime sector.
For example, in escape rooms—a popular group activity—PLA-UV Color Change can be used to create interactive props.
In daily life, it can be used to create light-sensitive accessories for decorative or functional purposes.
In the packaging industry, it can be applied to food or pharmaceutical packaging to indicate environmental changes, such as UV exposure.
