PolyTerra™ PLA Dual is a dichromatic matte PLA 3D printing filament that is manufactured with two different colours to give models a striking dual-coloured effect. Based on Polymakers PolyTerra™ Matte formula, this bioplastic filament is sourced naturally to provide ease of use, printing quality, speed and reliability. It is the perfect choice for creating colourful models with a smooth matte surface finish that hides the layers.
FEATURES
Dichromatic Matte Finish - PolyTerra™ Dual PLA is a high quality dual colour matte filament that offers a beautiful and dynamic colour transition effect for your 3D prints[1] delivering a fun multi-colour filament for hobbyists, educators and small businesses. Print parts with a beautiful matte surface finish and unleash your imagination with Polymakers fun and vibrant dual colour range.
- Optimized for Support - PolyTerra™ Dual PLA has been engineered with excellent support removal properties, enabling users to more easily break away support or rafts from the surface of their prints.
- High Speed Capable - Polymaker have engineered the base PolyTerra™ PLA formula with ideal flow properties to deliver a filament which is capable of high speed printing (only on suitable hardware).
- Bioplastic Matte PLA Formula - PolyTerra™ Dual PLA is based on a newly developed material from Polymaker called FBC (Fully Bio Compound). It is a compound of high quality Ingeo PLA compounded with naturally occurring elements. The result is a PLA filament with less plastic content that feels softer and more ductile / less brittle on the spool. Polymakers FBC formula contains less PLA plastic to degrade which improves the speed of degradation under specific industrial conditions. Like other PLA's, the degradation rate is still very slow in ambient temperatures.
- Ductility (X-Y) - PolyTerra™ Dual PLA is softer than regular PLA, delivering improved ductility in the horizontal X-Y axis than standard PLA formulations. Whereas a test bar in standard PLA will snap when bent, PolyTerra™ Dual PLA will tend to gradually bend and fracture in the horizontal axis.
- Compatibility / Jam-Free™- PolyTerra™ Dual PLA is compatible with a wide range of 3D printers and is manufactured with Polymakers Jam-Free™ technology which leads to excellent printing quality with zero risk of nozzle jams caused by heat creep [2]. PolyTerra™ Dual PLA works well on most printing surface with a thin layer of glue stick applied, no heated bed is required but can sometimes be used at 40 - 50°C for better results (maximum 60°C).
- Uncompromised Quality - PolyTerra™ Dual PLA filament is made with the highest quality ingredients including Ingeo® from Natureworks; a high quality PLA material produced from rapidly renewable plant resources in the US. Combining Polymakers innovative R&D technologies, compounding and extrusion systems with Natureworks Ingeo® resins produces a reliable 3D printing filament to print beautiful and accurate models.
[1] See "Settings & specifications" for printing advice and to learn about achieving the smoothest dual colour effect.
[2] Heat creep is the the process of heat spreading irregularly throughout the hot end, one common example is with all metal hot end designs. Once heat creeps towards the cold end, the PLA filament softens prematurely in the cold end and expands resulting in a jam. Polymakers Jam-Free™ technology increases the heat resistance of the filament itself (not the printed part) to 100˚C which prevents the filament from prematurely softening in the cold end and can still melt rapidly once entering the heating zone.

Tips for Printing Dichromatic Filament
- Dichromatic / dual colour filaments print the best when the outside perimeters of the part are all printed in the same direction for each layer, not all slicers do this by default. You can view the direction of the tool path in slicer preview.

2. PolyTerra Dual PLA is wound carefully to ensure correct colour alignment on the spool. To achieve the best result, make sure the filament doesn't twist in the feeding path. If the filament twists during printing, the position of the two colours will shift throughout the print resulting in a striping effect. Some users find this effect desirable while others don't. Some level of twisting is common with most 3D printers on the market but excessive twisting may be more likely with some printers depending on their spool mount, hot end and extruder design. Using a high quality dual geared direct drive extruder and mounting the spool in a straight position that avoids twisting can help reduce this striping effect. - Smaller melt zones are better for dichromatic / dual colour filaments. This effect works because our 3D printers print with a laminar flow and so the two colours don't mix. Volcano- style hotends or CHT-style nozzles can produce mixing that reduces the dual-colour visual effect.
- It can be useful to print an alignment coin to tell you exactly where the colour change will occur. The angle will be different for every printer setup, but we have found that if the printer and spool stay in the same orientation, the alignment doesn't change from spool to spool.
Storage: It is recommended to store PolyTerraTM PLA in the PolyBoxTM to prevent moisture absorption which will lower the quality and the mechanical properties of the print. If the filament has absorbed moisture it can be dried at 55 ̊C for 6 hours in a convection oven.

Perfect for travel... very comfortable!
These things are amazing! I bought these a couple weeks before a trip to Italy and had planned on doing a lot of walking in them. I only got to wear them a couple times before we went on our trip, but no blisters, even during LOTS of walking in them on the trip! They wore in super quickly while still keeping their durability. My feet stay dry even in lots of rain. The photos show the wear on them after a few months, including a couple weeks of travel, and weeks of wear around town.
My only complaint is that there is a tiny something (a little knot of thread with glue? not sure...) that is at the top of the opening of the boot, and it rubs the back of my ankle and makes a sore. That isn't enough to make me not wear them though. There's a photo that shows this. As you can see it's super tiny, and probably not even a flaw, it just hits my ankle *just* right so that it rubs.

These shoes were perfect! Cute design
Spent more than I typically would on shoes to get a quality pair for a trip. Needed a dependable shoe that would be waterproof for hiking and exploring the often wet climate and terrain. These shoes were perfect! Cute design. Very comfortable. Fit as expected. Kept my feet warm and dry. Good for hiking as well as walking the streets of the little towns we explored. I'm glad I invested in these boots!

Chic Comfort
I really enjoy these boots. Excellent for wet muddy city streets! The slip on version are a bit narrow when it comes to putting them on. I wear a size 8 and ordered 8.5 for extra room , but they were too long. I think if you have wide feet these may not be too comfortable. Overall a good leather shoe. No water sipped through while wearing.

Need breaking in, but awesome quality
I was a little worried when I first got these- my feet are a little wider than normal, but not wide enough to need wide width. They were quite snug the first few times I wore them, but after some breaking in they fit PERFECT. I did have to go up a half size from my normal 7 to a 7.5, but these boots are fantastic and I can tell I have them for a long time!

Get these! You won't regret it!
These are my go-to winter shoes! They are waterproof- I love them bc they don't look like your typical "rainboots"! Stylish- I get compliments everytime I wear them! Comfortable- first time I wore them they were tight through the middle of my foot, but after two wears I had them nice and broke in, now my most comfortable shoes!
