RELIABILITY AND AFFORDABILITY
Polymaker’s uniquely engineered PolyLite family of 3D printing filament is manufactured with the best raw materials available to bring you exceptional quality you can trust every time. PolyLite 3D printing filament is robust enough to meet everyday needs throughout the design and prototyping process, while offering consistency you can be confident in. All of Polymaker’s PLA-based filaments feature Jam-Free technology, which gives the filament greater heat stability. This minimizes the softening experienced in the “cool end” of your print head, therefore yielding excellent print quality with minimal risk of nozzle jams while you’re away from your 3D printer.

Questions
The TDS download link provided is for Kimya TPU-92A - I found the TPC-91A TDS at https://www.kimya.fr/pdf/kimya-tpc-91a-3d-filament_en.pdf
How does this compare functionally with OBC ?
Is this material UV resistant? I saw references to generic TPC being resistant but Kimya TDS makes no mention of UV. I need flex material suitable for outdoor use.
This is the response I got from Kimya:
"As it pertains to our material being UV resistant, we don't have any data internally yet regarding the UV resistance of the specific formulations of our filaments (except for ASA). With that being said, you can take a look at this website, which provides information on UV Light Resistance and Polymer properties.
UV light Resistance & Properties: Polymer Properties (specialchem.com)"
I am doing my own testing by placing a sample in direct sunlight... so far so good, but it will take awhile.
Besides that, after printing a few parts, I can say that I prefer Kimya TPC over regular TPU 95A. Prints well albeit slow on a Bowden machine. Just use extruder with constrained path and limit max volumetric speed.
