Storage and handling notes
Review Safety Data Sheet to ensure safe handling, storage, and disposal.
Shake resin cartridges before printing to ensure the resin is thoroughly mixed.
To avoid contamination, do not pour resin back into cartridges.
For best performance and shelf life keep opened resin away from direct light.
Short-term freezing during shipping is generally not detrimental to shelf life. Thaw and shake the resin cartridge thoroughly before use.
High temperatures decrease shelf life. Transient high temperature conditions (e.g., during shipping) should have a minimal effect.
Footnotes
- Material properties may vary based on part geometry, print orientation, print settings, temperature, and disinfection or sterilization methods used.
- Data was obtained from parts printed on a Form Studio 1 printer with 100 µm Alpha Grey Resin V1 settings, washed in Form Studio Wash+Cure for 5 minutes in ≥99% Isopropyl Alcohol, and post-cured according to the corresponding column description.
