Dissolves rapidly in alkaline solutions.

This thermoplastic dissolves in alkaline (aka basic) solutions with a pH value of 9 or higher. The plastic is available in different grades that can be processed using conventional plastic processing equipment. It does not dissolve in water, but it will degrade if in prolonged contact with water or moisture.

Applications for alkali-soluble plastic:

It is used for dissolvable support material for 3D printing and as a hot-melt glue for temporary fastening in production environments.

More information:

The speed of dissolution is affected by the polymer composition, material thickness, pH value, temperature, and agitation in the solution. The dissolved polymer can be separated from the alkaline solution and converted to reusable soluble plastic.

Inspiration for new applications:

Use it as glue to assemble products that can be easily disassembled for recycling.
