Limonene is a solution made with lemon peels and it can be easily obtained. This solution, however, can potentially damage 3D printing materials other than ABS.<\/p>\n<p>This is\u00a0one of the reasons why HIPS is\u00a0best paired with ABS. The other reason is that the printing temperature\u00a0range is very similar between these materials, making the difficult task of dual-material 3D printing easier.<\/p>\n<p>One rather unfortunate quality that HIPS shares with ABS is that it releases toxic fumes when heated.\u00a0During printing, HIPS releases small amounts of styrene into the atmosphere, therefore, it\u2019s highly recommended to place the\u00a0printer in a well-ventilated area\u00a0when\u00a0using\u00a0this material.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3><strong>How to Use HIPS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>HIPS filament is generally printed with a nozzle temperature between 220 \u00b0C and 240 \u00b0C, and a bed temperature between 90 \u00b0C and 110 \u00b0C.
