Why Choose Flame Retardant (FR) Resin
Accelerate time to market without the design constraints and upfront costs of traditional manufacturing with isotropic and highly detailed parts (XY resolution: 25um) with unlimited geometric freedom in any quantity (from 1 to 1000 parts) at any time.
Certified Flame Retardant
Produce certified flame retardant, UL 94 V-0 and FAR-rated 3D printed parts that meet necessary certification requirements for enduring hazardous environments.
Heat and Creep Resistant
Parts will perform well long-term in indoor and industrial environments with high temperatures or ignition sources.
Look and Feel of Injection Molded Parts
Fabricate plastic parts with exceptional surface finish far superior to other fabrication methods such as FDM 3D printing.
Stiff and Functional
Produce stiff and functional parts with a 2.9GPa modulus that can handle post-fabrication operations such as tapping, trimming, and drilling.
Applications
Flame Retardant (FR) Resin is a cost and time-effective solution for fabricating self-extinguishing parts.
FR Resin is ideal for:

Post-Processing
Form Wash Settings
10 min IPA or 15 min TPM
If washing with TPM, use a quick water rinse after to ensure full removal of TPM.
Form Cure Settings
60 min
70 °C
There are two post-curing options for FR Resin. Refer to the technical data sheet to understand how different options affect mechanical properties, and choose the post-cure option that is best suited to the intended application. To achieve the highest HDT of 111 °C @ 0.45 MPa: Post-cure parts in Form Cure for 120 min at 80 °C. For applications that do not require the maximum heat resistance but offer more toughness, post-cure parts in Form Cure for 60 min at 70 °C.
