			<description><![CDATA[<p>Contact the guys at ProtoPasta. They sell a high temp PLA.<br />Whether you are looking to simply extrude and experiment with printing or analyze the makeup of the material, I&#039;m sure they would play ball for educational purposes. In the few times I&#039;ve spoken to them, they were good people.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Lens, </p><p>Not sure of any sellers of that combination but I might be able to help. What properties are you looking for in your filament? (e.g what temperatures do you need it to withstand?)</p><p>Cheers</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hey guys, </p><p>do you know any manufacturers who fabricate/sell such a compound? Within the scope of my master thesis, I need to fabricate my own high temperature resistant PLA and compounding my own stuff would be too time-consuming.</p><p>Thanks in advance!</p><p>lens</p>]]></description>
