Elastomeric Materials

elastomer applications elastomers are polymer materials with elasticity, meaning they can be stretched and return to their original shape click on the links below for more information about the material, technical data sheets, and operator protocols 1 part resins description colors docid\ duwowf1rjnqgvgktht3kh henkel medical grade, excellent elongation, tear strength early access https //www carbon3d com/resources/blog/expanding material offerings to enable more end use application production blue epu pro platform carbon, inc coming soon single part, dual cure, compatible with foaming agents, enables complex and delicate geometries, extended pot life https //www carbon3d com/contact for more information 2 part resins description colors docid\ uhvzmwv0otjszuy347mkt https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 40 carbon, inc highly elastic, tear resistant, and resiliant black https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 41 carbon, inc highly elastic, tear resistant, and energy returning black https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 43 carbon inc soft, excellent durability, and energy damping black docid\ ohi4ppt7y4s0nzxztjcw2 https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 44 carbon, inc highly resilient, tear resistant, 40% bio based white gray https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 45 carbon inc energy damping and strain rate sensitive black docid\ gwpcplgv72h6vu9jvbci4 https //www carbon3d com/materials/epu 46 carbon inc energy returning, customizable colors, tunable material stiffness black color mix docid\ objymillswpupjainn2te https //www carbon3d com/materials/sil 30 carbon, inc soft, biocompatible and tear resistant gray energy return and stiffness carbon elastomers energy return and stiffness energy return to damping epu 41 | epu 46/44 | sil 30 | epu 40 | epu 43 | epu 45 soft to stiff sil 30 | epu 41 | epu 40 | epu 43 | epu 46/44(tunable stiffness) | epu 45 post processing green state handling elastomeric parts are much more fragile in their green state than their fully cured final part state do not apply too much force to parts during processing incorrect incorrect green state handling incorrect green state handling excessive squeezing of parts in the green state are likely to both deform the parts and alter material properties correct correct green state handling correct green state handling minor handling is both acceptable and inevitable in processing, but use a delicate touch to maintain part integrity as shown here after secondary curing (baking), parts can be squeezed without issue final part state (after baking) left part excessivley squeezed in green state | right part handled properly in green state left permanently deformed due to squeezing in the green state parts may visibly, permanently deform during the thermal cure parts may micro fracture, invisible to the naked eye, but affecting of material properties right no deformation due to proper handling lab reference grids this printable handout is vital for printer technicians and provides information about resin storage and dispensing, washing times and compatible solvents as well as cure times make sure to always have a copy available english german/deutsch spanish/español japanese/日本語
