Cleaning Fluid WS1 – Cleaning and Surface Smoothing Fluid for Water-Soluble and Non-Water-Soluble 3D Prints

Cleaning Fluid WS1 is a high-performance cleaning and surface-smoothing fluid developed for washing water-soluble and non-water-soluble 3D printed parts. It efficiently removes surface residues and is particularly suitable for processing sacrificial water-soluble resin systems, such as injection mold patterns.

Cleaning Fluid WS1 can also be used as a cost-effective alternative to vapor smoothing systems. Many thermoplastic and thermoset 3D printed parts can be surface-smoothed by controlled immersion. Surface finish can be adjusted by modifying immersion time and temperature.

Designed for washing water-soluble and non-water-soluble 3D printed parts, including sacrificial water-soluble resin systems, thermosets and thermoplastics such as TPU and polyamides (nylon). Suitable for cleansing and surface-smoothing workflows by controlled immersion.

• Washing water-soluble and non-water-soluble 3D printed parts
• Processing sacrificial water-soluble resin systems, such as injection mold patterns
• Surface smoothing of thermoplastic and thermoset 3D printed parts by controlled immersion

• Viscosity: <1 mPas at 23°C ± 2°C (ISO 3219)
  

• Effective washing and surface treatment of water-soluble and non-water-soluble 3D prints, including thermosets and thermoplastics such as TPU and polyamides (nylon)
• Suitable for rapid immersion-based surface smoothing
• Cost-effective alternative to vapor smoothing systems
• Adjustable smoothing effect depending on immersion time and temperature
• Formulated to clean water-soluble resin systems efficiently when used with Cleaning Fluid WS2 Bio

• Use only chemical-resistant glass or compatible plastic containers, as WS1 may affect certain polymers
• For washing (without smoothing) non-water-soluble durable 3D resins, use Cleaning Fluid Bio, Cleaning Fluid NW1 Bio, or Cleaning Fluid UNW1 Bio for whitening-sensitive transparent parts
• For lower-risk cleaning of water-soluble sacrificial systems, use Cleaning Fluid WS1 Bio

• Not intended for biomedical or biocompatible workflows
• Recommended smoothing temperature range: room temperature to 50 °C
• Must be handled according to its Safety Data Sheet (SDS)

Use only chemical-resistant glass or compatible plastic containers, as WS1 may affect certain polymers. For washing without smoothing of non-water-soluble durable 3D resins, use Cleaning Fluid Bio, Cleaning Fluid NW1 Bio, or Cleaning Fluid UNW1 Bio for whitening-sensitive transparent parts.

This product is supplied as a professional processing aid and is not intended for biomedical or biocompatible workflows. Performance and compatibility must be validated by the user according to the intended application and processing conditions.
