An object of the present invention is to provide fine particles excellent in biodegradability and touch feeling. Disclosed are cellulose acetate particles, the cellulose acetate particles have an average particle size of 80 nm or more and 100 μm or less, a sphericity of 0.7 or more and 1.0 or less, and a surface smoothness of 80% or more and 100% or less, and the cellulose acetate has a total degree of acetyl substitution of 0.7 or more and 2.9 or less.

An acrylic alloy composition that can be 3-D printed by a material extrusion additive manufacturing process, an acrylic filament that has a very uniform diameter useful in the extrusion additive manufacturing process, acrylic articles made from the acrylic alloy composition by a material extrusion additive process, and a material extrusion additive manufacturing process for producing the acrylic articles. The acrylic alloy composition is an alloy of an acrylic polymer, and a low melt viscosity polymer, such as polylactic acid. The alloy may optionally be impact modified, preferably with hard core core-shell impact modifiers.
