3Dputty SAE is our curing durable Swellable Absorbent and Elastic Hydrogel putty curable with UV & visible light in seconds. Its usage is ideal as hydrogel for different bioprinting applications.
It is a fast light curing putty, which before exposed to UV/Visible light can be modelled, but after being shaped it can be hardened with a normal UV/Visible light in seconds to become a durable super elastic hydrogel material.
3Dputty SAE has these features:
- clear/translucent non-sticky putty hydrogel
- soft, malleable, easy to shape for easy application before curing
- fast curing of even thick layers of several centimetres
- durable super elastic after light curing
- Shore Hardness A20 before dipping in water / O30 after dipping in water
- Elongation >100% before dipping / >>200% after overnight dipping in water and/or alcohol
- synthetic source
- hydrophillic
- safe handling after full curing and cleansing*
- skin and eye irritant as supplied (always use gloves)
- recommended for making water and alcohol swellable absorbent hydrogel 3D materials
- ideal for making soft gels or jellies and elastic hydrogel materials with Shore O30,
- ideal for support cell adhesion and promote cell infiltration for tissue engineering and hydrogels
- absorbs more than 2-3 times its weight of water and/or alcohol
- soft and flexible before dipping
- Tensile strength <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping
- Flexural strength <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping
- soft and elastic (Young modulus <2 MPa before dipping / <0.2 MPa after dipping
- fast swelling in water and alcohol
- 100% tack free finishes after light curing
- photocurable with UV & Visible light
- long shelf life
*Note: use gloves to prevent skin irritation and other potential hazards (read the MSDS before handling it)
