Deep Blue Resin
Deep Blue is a general purpose photopolymer resin for DLP, SLA and LCD / MSLA technologies in the range of 385 – 405nm. Parts created with Liqcreate Deep Blue have a rigid character and its low shrinkage and high shape retention make this material perfect for the production of functional prototypes.
The aesthetically pleasing blue color, low odor and gasoline & chemical resistant properties makes this this material perfect for rapid manufacturing and prototyping in the industrial and automotive market.
Excellent chemical resistance and compatibility
Deep Blue is compatible with most chemicals and resistant to petrol and diesel.
Deep Blue Resin Technical Specifications
Deep Blue resin is a general purpose photopolymer resin for SLA, DLP and MSLA 3D-printing technologies with excellent chemical compatibility. Results from mechanical properties and internal gasoline & chemical compatibility measurements can be found in the table below.
