3Dresyn PP TFD30 tough & foldable D30

3Dresyn PP TFD30 is a tough, non-brittle photopolymer formulation designed to provide high elasticity, softness and foldability while maintaining structural integrity. The material enables the fabrication of durable components capable of undergoing large deformations and repeated compression without failure.

This formulation is engineered to deliver a low-modulus, elastomer-like mechanical profile, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring high compliance, surface adaptation and energy absorption.

Designed for use in vat photopolymerization systems (SLA, DLP and LCD) within professional and industrial environments for soft, elastic and impact-resistant components.

Particularly suitable for soft elastomeric printing plates where high compression, maximum surface conformity and repeated deformation cycles are required.
