Fine Tuner FT5 Bio WS is a Water Soluble ultra safe natural plant based photo accelerant for water soluble resin systems curing with UV & Visible light up to 500 nm

Product description

Fine Tuner FT5 Bio WS is a water-soluble, 100% biocompatible, natural plant-based photo accelerant additive designed to increase cure speed in water-soluble 3D resin systems for SLA, DLP, LCD and Inkjet 3D printing.

The formulation provides efficient curing kinetics across a broad spectral range (150–500 nm), covering far, medium and near UV as well as visible light sources including LEDs, lasers and DLP projectors.

Fine Tuner FT5 Bio WS is specifically engineered for compatibility with water-soluble and hydrophilic photopolymer systems while maintaining a fully safe, non-toxic and non-labelled profile.

Application framework

Designed for use in vat photopolymerization systems (SLA, DLP, LCD and Inkjet), particularly in water-soluble resin systems and biocompatible workflows using medium to high power printers.

Typical applications

• Increasing cure speed in water-soluble 3D resins
• Biocompatible and biofabrication workflows
• Hydrophilic resin systems and biomedical applications
• Bioplotting and soft-material processing

Recommended use guidelines

• Recommended wavelength range: 150–500 nm
• Compatible with UV and visible light systems (LEDs, lasers, DLP projectors, daylight LCDs)
• Suggested dosage in high-power systems: 0.5–1 wt%
• Suggested dosage in low-power systems: 1–2 wt%
• Higher dosage (>6–8 wt%) may be required in very low power systems
• Add progressively and mix thoroughly before evaluation
• Avoid overdosing to prevent overcure and loss of dimensional accuracy

Functional performance characteristics

• Efficient cure acceleration in water-soluble systems
• 100% biocompatible, plant-based formulation
• No hazard pictograms or risk phrases
• Full compatibility with hydrophilic and water-soluble resins
• Safe for biomedical and environmentally sensitive applications

Processing and handling performance

• Optimized for medium and high-power SLA and DLP systems
• Limited performance in very low power systems with slow-curing resins
• Compatible with SLA, DLP, LCD, mLCD and Inkjet workflows
• Essential for printers with fixed exposure parameters
• Requires careful dosage adjustment depending on resin reactivity

Physical and chemical characteristics

• Water-soluble additive
• Natural plant-based composition
• Ultra-safe formulation with no classification labels
• Very low cytotoxicity profile

Packaging and use format

• Supplied as a kit
• Includes additive, one graduated beaker and one empty 250 mL black bottle
• Kit designed for safe mixing, storage and protection from daylight

System compatibility note

Fine Tuner FT5 Bio WS is not recommended for very slow-curing resins in very low-power printers, where curing kinetics may remain insufficient even at high dosage levels.

Testing & processing disclaimer

Cure behaviour, print speed and final part performance depend on resin formulation, printer irradiance, wavelength, exposure conditions and post-processing workflow. Optimization must be performed under real printing conditions.

Disclaimer

This product is supplied as a formulation additive for professional use in photopolymer engineering and additive manufacturing workflows. It is not a standalone printable material. Final part performance and suitability must be validated by the user according to the intended application.
