THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND
TPU is a material prone to absorb moisture. When this happens, the filament can make bubbles or creaks when printing.
To remove moisture, you can use any of the following strategies:
Leave the filament in a closed room with a dehumidifier for 24 hours.
Place the filament in an oven for 2 hours at a temperature of 60°C.
STORAGE & PRESERVATION
Filaments tend to absorb moisture from the environment, leading to problems during printing or finishing. For this reason, it is important to keep the relative humidity value between 10-15%.
Moisture may cause the filament to degrade, clogging the extruder and varying it’s physical and mechanical properties.
To keep the filament in good condition, it needs to be stored and dried correctly.
The filament must be stored in airtight containers, preferably vacuum packed. You can use zip bags with silica gel beads, vacuum-sealed bags or food containers with a vacuum seal.
There are many techniques to remove moisture, including:
Conventional methods such as drying the filament in a home oven or a food dehydrator. At low temperatures for long periods of time.
Professional ways such as using a filament dryer.
The useful life of a filament can vary according to different factors. That is why it is important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for drying and storage parameters.
