  • Full name High Impact Poly Styrene
  • What is it? HIPS adds some impact modifiers to polystyrene which would otherwise be too brittle for use in 3D printing.

    Although more brittle, HIPS is otherwise very similar to ABS when used for 3D printing.

    HIPS and ABS adheres fairly well to each other during dual-material printing, so that the part tends to stay together during build time.

    Support structures made with the more brittle HIPS is easy to break off and remove. Any remaining HIPS can be dissolved with d-Limonene (citrus oil) which generally does not affect the ABS.
