3Dputty SAE is our light curing durable Swellable Absorbent and Elastic Hydrogel
Product description
3Dputty SAE is a curing durable swellable absorbent and elastic Hydrogel putty curable with UV & visible light in seconds.
Its usage is ideal as hydrogel for different bioprinting applications. It is a fast light curing putty, which before exposure to UV / visible light can be modelled, and after shaping it can be hardened in seconds to become a durable super elastic hydrogel material.
Application framework
Designed for hydrogel and bioprinting applications requiring a UV & visible light curable swellable absorbent and elastic hydrogel putty.
Typical applications
- Hydrogel for different bioprinting applications
- Water and alcohol swellable absorbent hydrogel 3D materials
- Soft gels or jellies and elastic hydrogel materials with Shore O30
- Applications intended to support cell adhesion and promote cell infiltration for tissue engineering and hydrogels
Measured mechanical properties
- Tensile strength: <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping (ISO 527-1 / ISO 527-2)
- Flexural strength: <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping (ISO 178)
- Young’s modulus: <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping (ISO 527)
- Elongation at break: >100% before dipping / >>200% after overnight dipping in water and/or alcohol (ISO 527)
- Shore hardness: A20 before dipping in water / O30 after dipping in water (ISO 868)
Measured physical properties
- Absorption: more than 2-3 times its weight of water and/or alcohol
