3Dresyn IM-F, durable and flexible for injection of soft materials

3Dresyn® IM-F is a flexible photopolymer developed for the fabrication of durable components requiring easy demolding, high flexibility and high resolution.

Designed for use in vat photopolymerization systems (SLA, DLP and LCD) within controlled professional environments. Suitable for applications requiring flexible materials for delicate mold release and deformation without fracture.

• Flexible molds for easy demolding of delicate castings
• Foldable and deformable components
• Soft tooling and auxiliary manufacturing elements
• Prototyping of flexible parts
• Applications requiring high elongation and low stiffness

• Elongation: >50% (ISO 527)
• Shore hardness: A60–70 (ISO 868)
• Very low shrinkage

• Density: 0.90–1.20 g/cm³, depending on formulation and, where applicable, selected version (ISO 1675)
• Printing shrinkage: no measurable dimensional shrinkage after calibration under validated processing conditions
• Very low viscosity: <50 mPa·s (Brookfield)
• Very low viscosity enabling high detail printing

• Flexible material for easy demolding of delicate castings
• 100% foldable without breaking
• Durable flexible behavior
• Very high resolution

• Printable by most commercial and professional SLA, DLP and LCD 3D printers
• Organo-tin free formulation

Material performance depends on printer type, exposure conditions, geometry and full workflow implementation. Mechanical performance must be validated by the user for each specific application.

• Flexible material for easy demolding applications
• High elongation and foldability without fracture
• Very low shrinkage and good dimensional stability
• Compatible with SLA, DLP and LCD technologies

This material is supplied as a professional manufacturing material and is not marketed as a finished product. Final performance and process validation remain the responsibility of the user depending on printer, geometry and workflow conditions.
