The work is devoted to the search for plastics used in 3D printing, which have pronounced piezo optic properties. A review of the works devoted to the study of various characteristics of plastics is performed. It is established that there is currently no data on the piezoelectric properties of consumables for 3D printing. The various brands of plastics widely represented on the market are analyzed. Between them, those that transmit light well were selected. Experimental studies of widely available transparent plastics were performed. The photoelasticity method is used in the work. Several grades of plastics with birefringence have been identified. In the future, it is planned to use these materials for printing models of nodes of spatial structures on a 3D printer in order to obtain stress fields in them.
