Click to see:The difference between PC and acrylic
The main differences between 3D printed transparent photoresist and traditional organic glass and acrylic are:
1. Definition
Transparent photosensitive resin: refers to the material used for photopolymerizable rapid prototyping as a transparent photopolymerizable liquid resin, mainly composed of oligomers, photoinitiators and diluents.
Acrylic, also called PMMA or organic glass, is derived from the English acrylic (acrylic plastic), and its chemical name is polymethylmethacrylate. It is an important plastic polymer material developed earlier.
2. Different
Acrylic has good transparency, good chemical stability and weather resistance, is easy to dye, easy to process and has a beautiful appearance. Its products can generally be divided into cast plates, extruded plates and casting compounds.
Acrylic
Transparent photosensitive resin is widely used in prototyping parts, product accessories and housings, equipment windows, medical products, architectural models, electronic devices, aerospace and other industries because it does not is free from structural restrictions, digital molding, fast delivery and no quantity limits. Due to its low price and other advantages, it has been very popular in the industry in the past two years.
Transparent resin for 3D printing
Due to its raw material limitations, traditional acrylic can only process some parts with simple shapes and undemanding requirements, and its material thickness is basically fixed, so it is also subject to certain restrictions. If you’re dealing with complex objects, this will be the case. very expensive. High cycle, long and medium effect. The transparency and temperature resistance of acrylic are better than those of transparent photosensitive resin, so its advantages can also be reflected in some simple parts.
Generally speaking, compared with acrylic, transparent photosensitive resin has lower molding difficulty, molding time and molding price than acrylic. However, for some simple parts, acrylic is superior due to its high transparency and high temperature resistance rating. .
