Liqcreate Rigid Pro

High Strength and Rigidity for Professional Applications

Liqcreate Rigid Pro is a top-tier black photopolymer resin designed for Digital Light Processing (DLP), Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), and laser-based 3D-printers. Specifically engineered for industrial applications, this resin is ideal for projects requiring high strength, low shrinkage, and exceptional rigidity. Compatible with most open DLP, MSLA, and laser-based 3D-printers operating at wavelengths of 385-405nm, Liqcreate Rigid Pro ensures high-quality prints with excellent stiffness, durability, and temperature resistance. This makes it a perfect choice for creating parts such as pulleys, automotive connectors, covers, brackets, housings, and other demanding engineering components. Achieving optimal strength requires UV post-curing with heat, and an optional thermal curing step can further enhance thermal performance.

Key Features of the Liqcreate Rigid Pro:

  • High Strength: Exceptional tensile and flexural strength for robust and durable parts.
  • Dimensional Stability: Low shrinkage ensures precise and accurate prints.
  • Good Chemical Stability: Resistant to various chemicals, enhancing longevity.
  • Temperature Resistance: Withstands high temperatures, making it suitable for diverse industrial applications.
  • Wide Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Asiga & Nexa3D, Elegoo & Anycubic, Phrozen & Creality series, and open 385-420nm DLP, LCD, and SLA 3D-printers.

Technical Specifications and Polymer Properties

3D-printed parts from Liqcreate Rigid Pro exhibit excellent thermal and chemical resistance along with high strength, making them suitable for various demanding applications. UV post-curing with heat is required to achieve optimal strength, and an optional thermal curing step can further enhance thermal performance.

  • High Strength and Stiffness: Liqcreate Rigid Pro delivers superior tensile and flexural properties.
  • Thermal and Chemical Resistance: Parts made from this resin withstand high temperatures and resist chemical degradation.

HOW TO USE:

  1. Shake the bottle for at least 60 seconds before use.
  2. Allow the resin to rest for 10 minutes after shaking to let air bubbles escape before pouring into resin vat.

Note: This resin can be poured back into the bottle after use, however, it is important to check for residual pieces of polymer before doing so. Always take protective measures when handling Liqcreate resins. For more details on safety please check the attached Safety Data Sheet.
