Printing "PLA 90 C" any experience?

Hi folks

In a project where i participate, they wanted to print extruder bodys. They made them with HT-PLA with Carbon but the parts didnt last.

So they wanna print it now with the so-called "PLA 90 C" . Its a PLA that should last with higher temperatures... should be resitable until 100° Celsius

https://www.3dware.ch/Filament-PLA-90-Natrural-1.75mm-750g-En.htm

Does anybody have experience with this kind of PLA?

Further informations:

Printer: Prusa I3 MK2, with OctoPrint

Information PLA: recommended print temp: 215° / Bed temp: 0° with glass (offset), 110° Heatbed (I think its far too much to handle for the printer), these informations are provided by manufactor. all the other setting (including Extrusion with & Retract) are default PLA.

We did one try with 60° bed / 215° extruder but the filament didnt come out properly, even tough the line at the start didnt came out. I think now the whole thing is jammed inside. I cleaned the nozzle again...

Would you recommend a higher temperature f. e. 245°? I dont like doing this because you risk a heating failure or a thermistor (or even the whole rambo) damage...

We' d be grateful for every hint / help..

Thanks a lot.

You can go up to 280C without any issue with the E3Dv6 hotend. So just bump up the temperature, try to print temp tower.

Sounds like a regular HTPLA which you need to anneal in the oven before it can resist such a temp. In general I wouldn't buy this filament because they promise something without providing a data sheet.  I always prefer to know what kind of toxic stuff I'm printing @home.
