What’s included：
Tough Resin Ultra： Low-Odor. This formulation is of low order and non-irritating, fostering a serene and comfortable printing environment. Its composition significantly reduces volatile organic compounds, making it an environmentally friendly and green choice.
Bio Resin： Eco-Friendly & Body-Friendly. Anycubic Bio Resin is formulated with bio-friendly ingredients, making it less irritating and odorless. This resin has successfully met the CEN Toy Safety Standard EN 71-3. It has obtained several essential biosafety certifications, including tests for in vitro cytotoxicity, skin sensitization tests, and animal irritation tests conducted through skin exposure.
Plant-based Resin： Truly Eco-friendly. Based on the market demand for green, safe, and eco-friendly resins. Anycubic Plant-based Resin was launched to meet users’ needs, and it is made from soybean oil extract, making it a truly environmentally friendly option.
Water-Wash Resin： No chemical solvents required — rinse with water for easy, eco-friendly use.
Instructions for Use：
（1）Before use：
- Shake the liquid resin before use.
- Clean the resin tank and the molding platform to ensure the bottom of the resin tank allows for light transmission.
（2）When using：
- Unscrew the cap and add it to the resin tank according to the equipment requirements.
- Select the correct print parameters and settings for printing.
（3）After use：
- After printing, please use the matching tools for post-processing, including blades, diagonal pliers, tweezers, containers, and gloves.
- Ethanol (≥95%), lactate, or isopropyl alcohol cleaning solution.
（4）Post-processing steps：
- A. Remove the printed model from the molding platform with a blade.
- B. Submerge the model in the cleaning solution, rinse or ultrasonically wash, then take it out and drain. ANYCUBlC Wash and Cure machines are suggested to ensure better results.
- C. Proper processing, such as removing support, polishing, coloring, etc.
Precautions：
- The ideal condition for storing uncured resin is a cool, dark place at room temperature, protected from light to avoid exposure to high temperatures or sunlight.
- The suggested operating temperature is 18-35 °C, and a low temperature may affect the printing effect. Therefore, the resin should be properly preheated before use (not exceeding 60°C).
- If the resin pigment settles, it can be used after stirring or shaking.
- To ensure the resin’s performance, please remove the model promptly after cleaning to prevent it from soaking in water for an extended period.
- To ensure the mechanical properties of the model, please perform post-curing on time after cleaning and drying.
- To ensure the ideal performance of the curable material, it is necessary to control the intensity and time of the light source after curing. Therefore, the following steps are recommended：
- 1. The intensity of the mercury lamp or LED light source is 5-10mW/m mW/m², and the duration is no more than 1 hour (self-regulation)
- 2. The exposure time in the sun (summer) is around 1 hour
- 3. Proximity or long-term exposure under strong light sources, such as high-power high-pressure mercury lamps, is prohibited
- 4. It is recommended to print in a dark room or be covered with a lid while printing, as resin is a photosensitive material.
FAQs
Are ‘eco-friendly’ resins completely non-toxic?
A mix of specialized resins, such as Plant-based Resin (soy extract-based), Bio Resin (bio-friendly certification), and Water-Wash Resin (eliminates the need for IPA/ethanol for cleaning).
What does a typical ‘Eco-Friendly Bundle’ include?
Booking your dream vacation is simple! Discover how to choose destinations, tailor your itinerary, and finalize your booking with our straightforward process.
Does low odor mean they are safer?
While reduced odor indicates lower levels of strong-smelling VOCs, safety is primarily confirmed by third-party testing and safety data sheets (SDS), which verify the absence of specific toxins.
Are models from eco-resins brittle?
Early bio-resins were sometimes more brittle. Modern, high-quality formulations strike a balance between low odor/eco-benefits, while also offering increased toughness and good mechanical performance.
