    As Mjolinor said, PLA is similar to most plastics in terms of its conductivity/resistivity.

    Do you have a particular use in mind? Some of us might be able to comment on whether PLA is suitable.

    I was thinking it might be static dissipative. I think the upper limit for that is 10^9 - 10^12 ohm/square, so looks like it is not..

    Hi

    There are no printable plastics that are dissipative in their raw form. The only way to make that happen is to either surface treat them or mix in additives.
