BASF BASF Ultrafuse BVOH Support Material - 1.75mm (2.5kg)
BASF has engineered a powerful water-soluble support filament with Ultrafuse BVOH, designed to allow complex geometries in your 3D prints by supporting bridging, then completely dissolving once your finished print is submerged in water, resulting in a clean print with no support to remove. The higher the water temperature, the faster Ultrafuse BVOH dissolves.

BASF Ultrafuse Has Been Engineered from the Ground Up for Additive Manufacturing
BASF have long been experts in the materials world, designing thousands of powerful products for the manufacturing and engineering industries, across the globe, so stepping into 3D printing was the next step. Applying their experience to desktop manufacturing has resulted in dozens of professional grade 3D printing filaments that perform well without a high barrier of entry. Whether you're firing up your first 3D print or iterating on an enterprise-level project, the Ultrafuse family from BASF is just what you need to succeed.
Print Complex Parts Using BVOH Support Material
By dual extruding with BVOH water-soluable support and your material, it suddenly becomes possible to overcome printing design challenges such as drastic overhangs, bridges, and multiple parts in one print. It adheres well to the bed during printing, then dissolves in water when printing is finished. Digitally fabricate the exact geometry you want from complex architecture models to multi-component assemblies and know BASF BVOH will provide the support you need to produce the best results.

Questions
I'm trying to print an upside down "L" as a test with the base material being PLA. It prints the BVOH, but then the PLA doesn't seem to stick to the BHOV, so as it prints over the BVOH, the material tends to follow the head instead of sticking to the BVOH. Any suggestions? Same problem with PETG and BVOH.
Given that this filament is water-soluble, does this have the same strict storage requirements as PVA? I.e., keep in airtight dry storage at all times, put in a dryer before (& during) printing.
The list of compatible filaments includes ABS but not ASA. Is that because this product hasn't been tested with ASA or because it has been tested and was found to be incompatible with ASA?
