Opaque Filament Opaque filaments are non-transparent materials used in 3D printing to create solid, color-rich parts. They provide excellent color consistency and UV resistance, making them ideal for decorative objects, functional prototypes, and consumer products. Common opaque filaments include PLA, ABS, PETG, and Nylon. Opaque filaments enhance surface finish and hide internal structures, unlike transparent or translucent counterparts. Proper print settings, including temperature, speed, and cooling, optimize layer bonding and color uniformity. Opaque filaments are popular for aesthetic and functional applications. |
