3D Printing Photopolymers Materials

Standard Resin 

Standard resin is commonly used for general-purpose 3D printing. It provides good detail and surface finish but is typically brittle and not suitable for functional parts requiring high strength or flexibility. Ideal for prototyping and visual models. 

ABS-like Resin

ABS-like resin mimics the properties of ABS plastic, offering higher strength and impact resistance compared to standard resin. It is more durable and slightly flexible, making it suitable for functional prototypes and parts that require more resilience. 

PVDF-like Resin

PVDF-like resin mimics the properties of PVDF, offering good chemical resistance and thermal stability. It is suitable for applications that require durability in harsh environments, such as chemical processing components and industrial parts. 

High-Temperature Resin

High-temperature resin is designed to withstand elevated temperatures without deforming. It offers excellent thermal resistance and is ideal for applications that require parts to endure high heat, such as molds, automotive components, and engineering prototypes. 

Flexible Resin

Flexible resin produces parts that are soft and elastic, similar to rubber. It is ideal for applications that require flexibility and durability, such as wearables, gaskets, and custom-fit parts. This resin maintains its shape under stress and returns to its original form.
