MakerBot's Precision Dissolving PVA is designed to ensure fast and effortless support removal for your most complex 3D prints. This material is ideal for creating intricate and detailed parts, as it dissolves easily, leaving behind a clean and smooth surface. However, it is important to note that PVA is a moisture-sensitive material, requiring proper storage to maintain its quality and performance.
Key Features
Faster and Effortless Support Removal: MakerBot Precision Dissolving PVA dissolves quickly and easily, making post-processing a breeze. This allows you to focus on creating complex and detailed prints without worrying about difficult support removal.
Moisture Sensitivity: PVA is highly sensitive to moisture, which can affect print quality and damage the extruder if not stored properly. To protect the filament, the spools are shipped in resealable mylar bags that are impermeable to light and moisture. Additionally, desiccant is included within the spool to maintain a moisture-free environment.
High-Quality Prints: By ensuring proper storage and handling, MakerBot Precision Dissolving PVA helps you achieve high-quality prints with clean and smooth surfaces.

Storage and Handling
To maintain the quality and performance of MakerBot Precision Dissolving PVA, it is crucial to store the filament properly:
Resealable Mylar Bags: The spools are shipped in resealable mylar bags that protect the filament from light and moisture.
Desiccant: Each spool contains desiccant to keep the environment moisture-free.
Proper Storage: Store the filament in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption. Long-term exposure to humidity can compromise material quality and performance.
Applications
Complex Geometries: Create intricate and detailed parts with complex geometries that require support material for successful printing.
Functional Prototyping: Develop high-quality prototypes that need precise support removal to achieve the desired functionality and appearance.
End-Use Parts: Manufacture end-use parts that require clean and smooth surfaces, free from support material residue.
