Graphene 3D's New Water Soluable Filament

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Graphene 3D Labs, the company that has made headlines with work they have done within the graphene filament space, today announced a brand new 3D printing material. This new material which will be unveiled on the 30th of this month is a water soluable filament. The filament is able to dissolve in cold water completely within as little as 30 minutes, making it ideal for use as a support material. Stay tuned to this thread for additional details on the composition of this filament by month's end. More details can be found here for the time being: http://3dprint.com/61385/graphene-3d...nter-filament/

Hoping this is as stiff as PLA/ABS. PVA is very difficult to get working properly in a multiple-extruder setup.

Did they ever actually release this stuff? If so, how much does it cost, and what materials will it stick to? If it sticks to PLA, they might have something, since PVA filament, the only other water-soluble filament I know of, doesn't seem to.

Enquiring minds want to know...
