SOME INFOMATION ABOUT THE MATERIAL
Castable Resin is an acrylate photopolymer, which requires a different process from a traditional wax schedule. Instead of melting at low temperatures, Castable Resin transitions to a gas. The recommended burnout schedule is designed and tested to allow Castable Resin to transition into a gas gradually, without distortion or loss of detail.
The first step is to preheat your oven to the recommended temperature of 100°C. Once the oven is preheated, place your print on the middle rack and let it bake for 60 minutes. After 60 minutes, turn off the oven and leave the door closed to allow the print to cool gradually.
Once the print has cooled completely, it is ready to be cast. To cast your print, simply place it in a mold and pour casting resin over it. The resin will harden in a few hours, and your cast will be ready to remove from the mold.
Castable Resin is a great material for creating detailed casts, and with the proper burnout schedule, you can achieve great results.
Castable resins are photopolymers designed to be functional equivalents of wax. Heated to temperatures reaching well over 750°C, they burn out, leaving ash residue not exceeding 0.003% of the pattern's mass
Tensile Strength 32 MPa
