Ultracur3D® RG 3280

Ultracur3D® RG 3280 is a specialized, ceramic-filled resin belonging to the rigid line of BASF Forward AM’s 3D printing photopolymers. It is suitable for printing on Zortrax Inkspire 2 with 405 nm wavelength and post-processing in Zortrax Cleaning Station and Zortrax Curing Station. The material is characterized by exceptionally high stiffness reaching 10 GPa and excellent resistance to high temperatures with HDT of up to 280 ºC at 0.45 MPa.

Despite the specific composition, the resin has a low viscosity and its sedimentation is limited. As a result, the resin is less likely to settle at the bottom of the vat and it is easy to process and print. High content of ceramic particles makes Ultracur3D® RG 3280 desirable in the automotive, robotics, electronics, metallurgy, energy production and chemical industry. The resin is white and has a ceramic look to it.

3D prints made with Ultracur3D® RG 3280 on Zortrax Inkspire 2 and properly post-processed in Zortrax Cleaning Station and Zortrax Curing Station do not require any further thermal processing. The whole procedure using these three devices lets you obtain parts with properties similar to ceramics without the need to use special furnaces.

Applications

  • parts that require resistance to wear and corrosion,
  • thermal and electrical insulation,
  • positioning and guide pins,
  • non-conductive components, such as handling arms or enclosures,
  • injection molds,
  • heat-resistant jet engine parts, for example in modern drones

Wear resistance and electrical voltage insulation

Ultracur3D® RG 3280 resin is defined by high rigidity and electrical voltage insulation. It can therefore be used to 3D print objects required for specific manufacturing processes, for example ceramic handling arms that move semiconductor wafers from one station to another.

Shore hardness

Thanks to the high hardness, the material is perfect for 3D printing positioning or guide pins, which are used in pressure welding. Such pins function as a non-conductive, thermal insulation which doesn’t interfere with the welding process.

Heat deflection temperature

Models 3D printed with the Ultracur3D® RG 3280 resin are capable of withstanding high-temperature operating conditions reaching 280 ºC. As a result such parts can be incorporated in other high-performance components, such as jet engines in modern drones, where cold air is mixed with hot exhaust gases.
