Resin

Suitable for systems with a wavelength in the range of 365-405nm. Recommended exposition time at 405nm under room temperature:

  • 2.7 mW/cm2: 12.5 secs
  • 5.5-16 mW/cm2: 2.3 secs
  • Base layer: 10-15 secs

Elevated temperature ease the release of large cross-sections. In case of flashing, add a delay before the exposition start.

1. Cleaning

The Recommended cleaning agent is the mixture *MMB:**water 70:30 (w:w). The maximum soaking time in the cleaning agent is 15 minutes then the parts can be rinsed with water.

*MMB: 3-Methoxy-3-methyl-1-butanol (MMB) / CAS: 56539-66-3 ; Available at Sigma
**Deionized preffered

2. Drying

Dry under pressurized air or in an oven at a temperature below 90°C.

3. UV Post-curing

Any type of UV treatment is suitable (no risk of overcuring). Examples:

  • 6x10s @50% (Hoenle UV Cube 100 IC)
  • 2×30 min (CureBox Wicked Engineering)
4. Thermal Post-treatment

Heat 2h at 200°C and cool down slowly. For bulky parts, slow heating must be applied to allow the material to be heated evenly before it starts to cure. The ramp is dependent on the thickness the parts.
