TimeMass filaments are 70% water.
Yes, really. Ask ChatGPT how’s that even possible.
We make our own polymerized alcohols in-house, our materials are unique, not your dishwasher’s PVA.
Still skeptical? Good.
Our 7 patents, our partnership with Nestle, or our crowdfunding campaign could light up our tech’s value, yet having our filaments in your hands is the ultimate skepticism’s antidote.

Clove Soap Gen 5 infuses your daily cleanse with the soothing spice of clove—imagine printing a bar that envelops your hands in the cozy aroma of clove while it foams. This 3D-printable soap filament takes our revolutionary foaming soap technology and adds a nostalgic twist: real clove oil for a gentle, aromatic cleanse with natural antiseptic benefits. Each bar you print is a little work of art and care, lasting far longer than ordinary soap and releasing rich, clove-laden lather with every use. It’s more than a soap; it’s a handcrafted self-care ritual born from your creativity, blending the comforts of an old-world apothecary with modern making.
How it works: 70% structured water buffers nozzle heat; clove aroma survives and blooms gradually with use.
Why Soap Gen 5? Bold spice that helps mask strong odors.

Fire
A Burning 3D printing filament
Sound on! Listen to the built-in crackling noise
In the video: A TimeMass Fire Benchy boat burning at a slower, more controlled pace. Check the difference in the flame’s color.
Combustible Polymer Matrix: A water-soluble polymer that burns cleanly. This matrix forms the main body of the filament.
Water-Embedded Microstructure: Tiny microcapsules containing water distributed throughout the filament.
Fiber Reinforcement: Thin, slow-burning fibers running through the filament, mimicking the wick structure in traditional candles.
Water Vapor Release: As the filament burns, the embedded water slowly evaporates. This vapor acts as a heat sink, regulating the burn rate and temperature, much like how a candle wick regulates the flame.
Localized Cooling: The release of water vapor creates localized cooling zones, preventing rapid combustion and ensuring a steady, controlled flame height.
Fiber-Wick Effect: The embedded fibers function similarly to a candle wick, channeling the flame and maintaining a consistent burn path. This guides the flame through the filament, layer by layer, in a predictable manner.
We believe TimeMass Fire will burn significantly cleaner than conventional filaments due to its 70% water-based composition. However, we have not yet tested all potential combustion byproducts. For safety, please use this filament only in a well-ventilated area.
In the video a PLA benchy boat burning.
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is not designed for burning and presents several disadvantages compared to Time-Mass - Fire:
Uncontrolled Combustion: PLA burns unpredictably, often resulting in irregular flames, soot production, and unpleasant odors.
Toxic Fumes: Burning PLA can release potentially harmful chemicals, making it unsuitable for controlled applications like candles.
Rapid Burn Rate: PLA lacks any inherent mechanism to regulate the burn rate, leading to fast and uneven combustion.

Fiber
Sacrificial Polymer Technology for soft 3D printed fabrics
In the image: Our 1.75mm Fiber filament.
What is TimeMass Fiber?
It’s a version of our filaments which is made of a composite Timeplast material, consisting of:
Core or Microfibers as Structural Component: These are durable, flexible strands embedded within the filament. They act as the final "yarn" or fabric structure.
Matrix or Outer Material as the Sacrificial Polymer: Surrounding the structural fibers, the sacrificial polymer serves as a temporary binding material, holding the microfibers in a specific shape during the 3D printing process.
This dual-material design within a single filament eliminates the need for a separate support material, simplifying the printing process and making it possible to achieve very thin fibers
In the image: The same fiber filament shown previously, but after 24 hours of exposure to water, the fibers begin to emerge.
When you print with this filament:
Layer Formation: The filament is deposited in layers, with the sacrificial polymer temporarily binding the fibers to maintain the desired geometry and tension until post-processing.
During printing, the sacrificial polymer:
Supports intricate designs and fine fiber orientation, acting as scaffolding during the build process.
Provides enough structural integrity to enable overhangs or complex shapes without collapsing.
In the image: A close-up view of the fibers themselves.
After printing, the object undergoes a sacrificial polymer removal process:
The sacrificial polymer is engineered to dissolve or disintegrate when exposed to room-temperature water.
As the sacrificial polymer dissolves, it leaves behind only the structural fibers, which are now loosely interwoven or patterned to create a fabric-like material.
The final printed object has to be dried out (for example in a food dehydrator) up until it achieves the desired final texture.
The remaining structure:
Retains flexibility and softness because the fibers were embedded in a precise pattern, mimicking woven or knitted textiles.
Has microvoids and interconnected fiber networks where the sacrificial material was removed, enhancing breathability and softness.
In the image: The before-and-after.
The final product achieves fabric-like properties because:
Fiber Orientation: The structural fibers remain in a pattern that mimics traditional fabric weaving, providing flexibility and drapability.
Tunable Thickness and Texture: By adjusting the sacrificial polymer-to-design ratio and the printing pattern, the properties of the resulting fabric can be tailored for softness, elasticity, or even stretchability.
Porosity: The dissolution of the sacrificial polymer creates spaces between the fibers, allowing the fabric to feel light and breathable.
Applications:
Fashion: Soft, customizable 3D-printed fabrics for garments with intricate patterns and dynamic properties (e.g., shape memory or thermal adaptability).
Medical: Biocompatible fabrics for bandages, surgical meshes, or wearable sensors.
Soft Robotics: Lightweight, flexible materials for artificial skins or soft robotic components.
Eco-Friendly Textiles: Fully recyclable or biodegradable fabrics due to the innovative polymer chemistry of Timeplast.
The best
Support filament in the 3D printing world period.
When we say TimeMass is the best support filament, it’s because we genuinely believe it to be true based on our testing and experience.
TimeMass stands out due to its exceptionally high molecular weight—the highest of any support filament we’ve tested at Timeplast. Combined with the non-toxic nature of our proprietary materials, you can print all day without worrying about releasing harmful chemicals into the air.
Additionally, TimeMass is an elastomer, which means it offers a unique combination of flexibility and water solubility. This allows supports to detach in a single stroke, making post-processing easier and cleaner. The high molecular weight also contributes to high-definition prints, setting a new standard for support filaments.
While materials like BVOH, PEG, and HIPS have been used for scientific purposes at much higher price points and are derived from conventional non-polar polymer chains, Time-Mass delivers a superior balance of affordability, safety, and functionality. We believe these factors make it an ideal choice for the average 3D printing enthusiast looking for a reliable and high-performing support filament.
