Hi all
Was just wondering if colo(u)r made any difference to the properties of a filament (not the type the colo(u)r )?

I.E.All else being the same does PLA in "black/grey /WHY" have the same properties as PLA in "signal white ?
I fully realise Nylons or wood filled or carbon filled or ... , are different but are all PLAs basically the same?
 
Higher strength meant that it was also more brittle. So 'stronger' in some tests meant weaker in others.
Thats what I was thinking, that there was no single winner.
He said he deliberately didn't 'tune' for seperate colours, but it strikes me that is exactly what you would do.
