FullCure430 simulates the toughness, strength and flexibility of Polypropylene.

Objet Geometries Ltd. (Rehovot, Israel) announced the release of the newest addition to its FullCure line of photopolymer materials, simulating plastics, DurusWhite, FullCure430.

DurusWhite, FullCure430 will be useful for a broad range of applications requiring polypropylene-like toughness, strength and flexibility, such as food packaging, laboratory equipment, loudspeakers, and automotive components. DurusWhite looks and feels like final products made of polypropylene, with its milky-white appearance. Moreover, it simulates the toughness (Izod Notched Impact of 44.22 J/m), flexibility (Elongation at Break of 44.2%) and strength (Modulus of Elasticity of 1135 MPa) of polypropylene.

In addition DurusWhite’s mechanical properties include resistance to fatigue and the snap-fit functionality over time, both of which are vital to products with hinged mechanisms.

DurusWhite works with Objet's 3-Dimensional Printing Systems: Connex500, Eden500V, Eden350V, Eden350 and Eden330/333. It is delivered in environmental friendly, sealed 3.6kg cartridges.
