Biotough MB 3Dresyns: safe and tough Monomer Based MB resins with Shore D70-D90
Biotough MB 3Dresyns is the monomer-based branch of the Biotough family, developed for safe and tough vat photopolymerization workflows requiring strong mechanical performance, controlled hardness and biocompatible positioning.
This collection focuses on Shore D80 and Shore D70 monomer-based grades for professional SLA, DLP and LCD/MSLA printing workflows where durable parts, reduced fragility and application-driven toughness are needed.
Navigate by: Shore D80 route, Shore D70 route and toughness-selection logic.
This collection includes monomer-based Biotough photopolymer systems designed to deliver high toughness, strong flexural performance and practical printability in professional additive manufacturing workflows.
These grades are positioned as safe monomer-based materials using ultra safe monomers, with only warning and aquatic pictograms, while maintaining strong functional performance for engineering, biomedical, educational, food-contact and toy-printing related workflows.

Typical applications
Typical use scenarios across the collection
This collection is suitable for workflows where a part must combine practical toughness, good handling safety and reliable dimensional behavior under professional printing conditions.
- Functional engineering parts: technical printed components requiring stronger and tougher mechanical behavior.
- Biomedical and educational workflows: safe monomer-based grades for controlled professional-use environments.
- Food-contact and toy-related prototyping: application-driven development where safer handling positioning matters.
- Jigs, fixtures and housings: durable parts requiring reduced cracking risk and better robustness than many standard resins.
- Hardness-driven selection: choosing D80 or D70 according to the final balance between rigidity and compliance.
Why choose this collection
How to choose the right Biotough MB grade
Select the most suitable grade according to the target Shore D hardness and the intended mechanical feel of the final part.
- Need the harder monomer-based route in this collection → choose 3Dresyn Biotough D80 MB Monomer Based
- Need the softer and slightly more compliant monomer-based route → choose 3Dresyn Biotough D70 MB Monomer Based
- Need strong toughness with safe monomer-based positioning → compare D80 MB and D70 MB against the final application stress profile
- Need lower water absorption behavior depending on version → validate the available ULWA option or specific supplied version
- Prioritise higher rigidity and hardness → start with D80 MB
- Prioritise lower hardness with tough behavior → start with D70 MB
- Prioritise handling safety with monomer-based chemistry → compare both MB grades under the final qualified process
Decision tree summary
Use this simplified logic before detailed printer qualification and application validation.
- Need the harder monomer-based route → D80 MB
- Need the softer monomer-based route → D70 MB
- Need final biocompatibility and functional suitability → validate the selected grade under the exact printer, washing and post-curing workflow
- Need application-specific compliance → confirm the final route against the intended use and legal manufacturer requirements
Then confirm the final route under the intended printer technology, exposure strategy, washing protocol, post-cure conditions and application-specific qualification workflow.

Technical overview table
Workflow-dependent performance
Mechanical behavior, dimensional accuracy, water-uptake behavior and biological interaction outcomes depend on multiple interacting variables including formulation version, printer calibration, wash protocol and post-curing conditions.
Successful implementation therefore requires alignment between grade selection, hardness target, process qualification and strict adherence to the final validated workflow.

Portfolio overview
A focused monomer-based tough-biocompatible platform
This collection is compact and clearly structured around two Shore D hardness levels within the Biotough monomer-based family.
- D80 MB covers the harder route.
- D70 MB covers the softer route.
- Together, they support application-driven selection across higher-rigidity or lower-hardness tough part requirements.
Workflow note
The right Biotough MB grade depends on the final workflow, not only on the nominal hardness
These materials are formulation systems whose final performance is workflow-dependent. Mechanical behavior, dimensional outcomes and biological interaction depend on the complete manufacturing sequence rather than on the liquid resin alone.
In practice, the correct path is to define the final application first, then validate the selected MB grade under the exact printer, exposure settings, washing method, post-curing protocol and intended-use requirements.
The regulatory classification and compliance of any final product manufactured with these materials remain the responsibility of the legal manufacturer of that product.
