Our products are made from only the highest

quality polymers such as Acrylonitrile butadiene

styrene (ABS) and our progressive

environmentally friendly Polylactic Acid (PLA).

Comparing DSC Data

Black PLA, 6.97 mg (DSC, 10 oC/min)

Blue PLA, 11.29 mg (DSC, 10 oC/min)

Clear PLA, 27.29 mg (DSC,

10 oC/min)

Yellow ABS, 7.24 mg (DSC, Heating

at 0 oC/min)

Blue ABS, 6.98 mg (DSC, Heating at 10 oC/min)

Conclusion of Data

FTIR Scans show that our plastics are high quality- as they

resemble the baseline polymers without dyes. DSC Data

shows how melting points vary based on pigment and type,

but our manufacturers 3Doodle pen for our handmade

products has variable temperatures. The different melting

and crystallization points for the different polymers is not a

problem for our expertly trained artisans and engineers that

make your top notch technology and fashion. Your

satisfaction, or your money back!*

not really dont worry about it though

SUMMARY

William Novak, Falls Church, Virginia

The Polymer Chemistry Program at RPI perfectly facilitates an interactive and enjoyable experience of polymer chemistry. With interactive labs, activities, and

lectures, Professor Chang Ryu and his team of relatable RPI students help students understand the unique world of polymers. We discussed the makeup and properties

of a plethora of different polymers, as well as many of their uses; The lot of us enjoyed using the 3D printer doodle pen.

Independant Sample

My sample was Polypropylene - a more simple

thermoplastic polymer with a 0 C glass

transition pointing and 160 C melting point

Independant Sample DSC

My sample was the same as Sophie and Mathews, but we each had different items. This shows how

versatile and widely used Polypropylene is.
