Filaflex Purifier is a revolutionary TPU filament that combines the exceptional flexibility of our Filaflex range with innovative Pure.tech technology for active air purification. With a Shore hardness of 82A and 650% elongation, this unique filament utilizes natural catalytic and photocatalytic reactions to adsorb and mineralize greenhouse gases like CO₂, NOx, and VOCs, transforming them into harmless mineral particles through continuous 24/7 purification.
The material's purification process activates through surface contact with ambient moisture and UV rays, requiring no external triggers or special conditions. While the effectiveness depends on surface area exposure, the purification effect is permanent and self-regenerating. This innovative filament maintains excellent printing characteristics, requiring no heated bed and offering odorless, easy printing for a wide range of sustainable applications.
Powered by Pure.tech: Group of product applications that incorporate CO2pure© properties.

Complete Technical Printing Guide - FILAFLEX PURIFIER
🌡️ 1. Material Preparation
Filament Drying (CRUCIAL):
- 📏 Temperature: 55°C
- ⏱️ Minimum time: 1 hour
- 💡 Proper drying is essential for optimal printing results
⚡ 2. Understanding Print Speed
Volumetric vs. Linear Speed
- 🌊 Volumetric Speed (mm³/s): Like water through a hose - measures how much plastic flows per second, regardless of nozzle size.
- 📏 Linear Speed (mm/s): Like walking speed - how fast the printer head moves across the print area
- 🔑 Key Formula: Linear Speed = Volumetric Speed / (Line Width × Layer Height)
✨ The Magic: When you set a volumetric speed limit in your slicer, it automatically calculates and adjusts all linear speeds (perimeters, infill, etc.) based on your current nozzle size and layer height. This ensures consistent material flow regardless of your print settings!
⚙️ 3. Basic Parameters
Unique Characteristics of Filaflex 82A
Unlike rigid filaments, TPU stretches when extruded, producing thinner lines. The line width will be smaller than the nozzle diameter. To ensure proper bonding between vertical walls and perimeters
| Nozzle | Layer Height | Line Width | Volumetric Speed | Temperature |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.4mm | 0.2mm | 0.35mm | 3.2 mm³/s | 240°C |
| 0.6mm | 0.3mm | 0.55mm | 7.2 mm³/s | 242°C |
| 0.8mm | 0.4mm | 0.75mm | 12.8 mm³/s | 245°C |
| 1.0mm | 0.5mm | 0.95mm | 20.0 mm³/s | 248°C |
🚀 4. Speed Settings
0.4mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 3.2 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 22.85 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 34.27 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 45.70 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 27.42 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 13.71 mm/s |
0.6mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 7.2 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 21.80 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 32.70 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 43.60 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 26.16 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 13.08 mm/s |
0.8mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 12.8 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 21.33 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 32.00 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 42.67 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 25.60 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 12.80 mm/s |
1.0mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 20.0 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 21.05 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 31.58 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 42.11 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 25.26 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 12.63 mm/s |
↩️ 5. Retraction Settings
🚀 IMPORTANT: Set travel speed to the maximum your machine allows (200-500mm/s). Faster movements reduce filament oozing time, minimizing stringing.
| Nozzle | Distance | Speed | Z-Hop |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.4mm | 1.5-3.0mm | 40mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 0.6mm | 1.5-3.0mm | 40mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 0.8mm | 2.5-3.5mm | 40mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 1.0mm | 2.5-3.5mm | 40mm/s | 0.2mm |
🌡️ 6. Bed Temperature Settings
Bed Temperature:
- Small parts: No heating (room temperature)
- Large parts: 45-50°C
❄️ 7. Cooling Settings
Cooling Configuration:
- General: 0% (fan off)
- KEEP FAN ALWAYS: OFF
- Force fan speed for overhangs and bridges: OFF
- Layers < 8 seconds: 50% fan
- First layer: Always 0%
🔧 8. Troubleshooting Guide
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Irregular extrusion | 1. Dry the filament 2. Check extruder 3. Reduce speed |
| Poor adhesion | 1. Dry the filament 2. Use adhesive 3. Adjust first layer |
| Stringing | 1. Dry the filament 2. Adjust retraction 3. Increase travel speed 4. Check temperature |
✨ 9. Best Practices
- 🌡️ Keep filament dry - store properly and dry before use
- ⚙️ Preferably use direct drive extruder
- 🔄 Print multiple small parts simultaneously for better results
- 🚀 Use maximum travel speed to minimize stringing
⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: These printing parameters are initial recommendations based on our experience. They may need adjustment depending on your specific 3D printer, environmental conditions, and the geometry of the part you are printing. Use these settings as a starting point and fine-tune them according to your specific needs.
