Technical Details & Test Data
- Recommended Cleaning
- Soak the print in a clean isopropanol (IPA) (or similar solvent) bath for a minimum of 2 minutes. Alternatively, rinse the part with IPA until all the visible uncured resin has been removed. Reusing IPA in multiple cleans can reduce the cleanliness and clarity of a print
- Leave the print to dry off any residual solvent prior to post-curing
- Recommended Post-Curing
- Post-cure as soon as possible after completion of printing
- Post-cure every print for a minimum of 10 minutes under a dedicated curing UV light operating at 405nm wavelength. Alternatively, leave the print to cure for a minimum of 2 hours under direct sunlight
- Temperature-assisted UV curing will increase the rigidity of the print
