Panchroma™ Luminous Rainbow PLA 1.75mm 3D Printer Filament

Panchroma™ Gradient Luminous Rainbow PLA brings together vibrant color and glow-in-the-dark performance in a single specialty filament. During the day, prints display a vivid rainbow gradient, while exposure to light charges the material so it glows brightly in darkness.

The luminous effect matches the daytime colors, creating a unique appearance that changes depending on the lighting conditions. This makes the material particularly well suited for creative prints where both daytime aesthetics and nighttime visibility are important.

The carefully controlled gradient transitions provide smooth color changes throughout the spool, with a color cycle of approximately 160 g. Larger models can showcase more of the rainbow transition, while smaller prints can capture individual sections of the gradient.

Designed for reliable FDM/FFF printing, Panchroma™ Gradient Luminous Rainbow PLA prints at speeds up to 200 mm/s using standard PLA temperature ranges. A hardened nozzle is required because of the glow-in-the-dark additives.

Additional Information

Panchroma™ Gradient Luminous Rainbow PLA was formerly sold as PolyLite™ Luminous PLA and uses the same material formulation under Polymaker's Panchroma™ family.

The glow-in-the-dark additives require a hardened nozzle to prevent excessive nozzle wear. Polymaker states that the material can be printed on stock 3D printers equipped with a hardened nozzle.

For the strongest rainbow effect, larger models provide more opportunity for the approximately 160 g color cycle to transition through multiple colors. The material is especially effective for models with larger surface areas and designs intended to be viewed from multiple angles.

Panchroma™ Gradient Luminous Rainbow PLA can be combined with other Panchroma™ effect materials for multi-material and HueForge projects, except materials designated by Polymaker as experimental.
