3Dresyn CR UT, chemical resistant ultra tough

Product description

3Dresyn CR UT is an ultra tough chemically resistant photopolymer designed for SLA, DLP & LCD 3D printing.

This synthetic thermoset crosslinked network material is engineered for very good chemical resistance to polar and non polar chemicals, including most strong chemicals such as strong alkalis, acids, oxidizing and reducing agents. It provides lower chemical resistance but less brittle behavior than 3Dresyn CR UHT.

Application framework
