The need for faster-biodegrading 3D printing materials is growing significantly due to environmental concerns. Oceans are increasingly impacted by plastic pollution, and microplastics are being absorbed and bioaccumulated through the food we eat.
It is time to dedicate resources to environmentally friendly materials and eco projects. Discover our: Low cost eco friendly bio based 3D resins
Biodegradable and bio-based design approach
Selected SLA, DLP, LCD and Inkjet formulations can be designed with bio-based content and, where supported by product-specific evidence, biodegradation objectives. Actual biodegradation behaviour depends on the Product/version, specimen, test method and environmental conditions; faster degradation than conventional plastics should not be inferred without a defined like-for-like comparison.
Green building blocks, engineered for photoreactivity
For applicable formulations, selected building blocks may be derived from renewable or biological feedstocks and synthetically functionalised for photoreactivity. The exact bio-based content and environmental attributes depend on the specific Product/version.
Property range and printability
Selected bio-based materials can be custom-designed for a range of physical-property targets, from hard and tough grades to flexible and elastic systems. Final properties depend on formulation, printer, processing and post-processing conditions.
3Dresyns develops bio-based formulation options using renewable-source building blocks where applicable. Product-specific composition, mechanical performance and print quality must be confirmed for the selected formulation and validated on the intended SLA, DLP, LCD or Inkjet workflow.
