* Material properties may vary based on part geometry, print orientation, print settings, and temperature. Data was obtained from parts printed using Form 2, 100 μm, Clear settings and post-cured with 1.25 mW/cm³ of 405 nm LED light for 60 minutes at 60°C.

Post-Processing

Washing

The foundational step in any SLA post-processing workflow is to remove any excess resin on the surface of the parts through an alcohol or ether wash.

Curing

Post-curing for General Purpose Resins is optional. However, Formlabs recommends a short post-curing to reduce surface tack and improve mechanical properties.
