Engineering selection of VPP photopolymers — the 3Dresyns SMSP

Abstract

The SMSP white paper describes a structured mechanical screening protocol for selecting VPP photopolymers by measured mechanical response rather than by generic resin category. It supports early material down-selection before application-specific validation. Material choice should be based on tensile, flexural, elongation, hardness, toughness, thermal behaviour and post-processing response, not only on marketing labels such as tough, rigid, flexible or high temperature. SMSP converts resin selection into a comparative engineering workflow before application-specific validation.
