3Dresyn ABS-like Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Engineering Resin

3Dresyn® ABS-like is a high-performance engineering photopolymer designed to replicate the balanced mechanical behaviour of ABS thermoplastics. It combines rigidity with controlled flexibility and impact resistance, enabling the production of durable and functional parts.

The material is available in HV (higher mechanical performance) and LV (lower viscosity) versions to ensure compatibility across a wide range of SLA, DLP and LCD systems.

Designed for functional engineering and technical applications requiring toughness, dimensional stability and reliable mechanical performance.
