Silicone-like and PDMS-like VPP Photopolymers

Abstract

This white paper covers silicone-like and PDMS-like VPP photopolymers for flexible, compliant and microfabrication-oriented workflows where elastic response, surface behaviour and soft-material handling are central. Silicone-like and PDMS-like VPP materials are selected when compliance, softness, flexibility, low modulus, elastomeric handling or soft-surface behaviour are more important than rigid structural performance. Selection should consider Shore hardness, tear behaviour, surface finish, cure depth and post-processing compatibility.
