Prof. Lab Resin ABS-like Blue – tough resin for everyday functional printing

Prof. Lab Resin ABS-like Blue is a photopolymer resin designed for LCD/UV 3D printers (MSLA), formulated to behave similarly to classic ABS – it is strong, less brittle than standard resin, and resists common mechanical stress. Thanks to its low shrinkage and high precision, it is ideal for printing functional components, prototypes, covers, brackets, mechanical parts, and detailed visual models where a combination of strength and reasonable flexibility is required.

Key features

• ABS-like mechanical properties – higher toughness and less brittleness than common standard resins.
• Blue opaque color – well-readable details, suitable for prototyping and presentation models.
• Low shrinkage – accurate dimensions, good print repeatability.
• High detail resolution – sharp edges, fine structures, suitable for technical and figural models.
• Compatibility with common LCD/UV 3D printers – suitable for 405nm UV source (most desktop resin printers).
• Balanced flexibility and strength – parts do not crack as much during assembly or light bending.

Recommended use

• Functional prototypes and mechanical prototype parts
• Brackets, covers, grips, and smaller structural elements
• Precise technical models and fixtures
• Model parts, figurines, and accessories requiring higher durability

Recommended printing and curing parameters

Specific values may vary depending on the printer type, UV source power, and layer height. Use the following settings as initial orientation recommendations:

• Printer type: LCD/MSLA, UV 405 nm
• Layer height: 0,025–0,05 mm (0,05 mm recommended for standard printing)
• Normal layer exposure: approx. 2–3 s at the power of common desktop LCD printers
• Bottom layer exposure: 25–35 s (4–6 bottom layers)
• Ambient printing temperature: 20–28 °C

After printing, the model must be rinsed in isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or a special cleaning solution for resins and subsequently post-cured in a UV station (usually 5–10 minutes depending on the size and wall thickness of the part).

Safety and handling

• Use the resin in a well-ventilated area.
• Work in protective gloves and avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Keep out of reach of children and away from heat sources or direct sunlight.
• Do not pour uncured resin residues into the drain; always cure the material before disposal.

Storage

• Store in a dark and cool place (ideally 15–25 °C).
• Always close the bottle tightly to minimize contact with air humidity and light.

Thanks to the combination of easy printing, good dimensional stability, and increased toughness, Prof. Lab Resin ABS-like Blue is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to get not only beautiful but also practically usable parts from a resin printer.
