Humidity won't wilt this SLA resin. (Keeping Up with Materials).


A new epoxy resin for stereolithography (SLA (1) (StereoLithography Apparatus) See 3D printing.

 properties. Unlike existing grades that often lose strength and "wilt" in hot, humid conditions, this material provides extremely low water absorption--half that of competing materials--so that part dimensions and mechanical properties are reportedly unaffected by high humidity. WaterShed is recommended for new SLA equipment that can produce very thin-walled parts, which are even more susceptible to heat and humidity

Developed by DSM 1. DSM - Data Structure Manager.

These polymers are useful in dentistry for fillings and in rapid prototyping in the stereolithography and PolyJet processes.  is a strong and rigid resin that offers aesthetic appeal similar to the company's WaterClear family of transparent grades. Many of its physical properties match those of extrusion-grade PBT and transparent ABS. Tel: (302) 326-8100, www.dsmsomos.com
