Nature of Bronze PLA Filament?

BronzeFill is a PLA/PHA based compound mixed with 80% fine bronze powder. The material is four times heavier than standard PLA. It has a density of approx 4 gr/cc (cubic centimeters) and feels like real metal. Bronzefill can be polished to get the beautiful metallic sheen as all other solid bronze products. After polishing, the normal visible layer lines disappear and the bronze object begins to stand out. ColorFabb says it will start doing intensive material tests in the next two months. Meanwhile they are looking for alternative methods to polish delicate printed parts in the easiest and most effective way.
