Carbon MPU 100: Carbon DLS material data sheet

Carbon MPU 100 is a polyurethane resin for Carbon DLS printers that pairs mechanical strength with biocompatibility and sterilisability.

Carbon MPU 100 is a polyurethane resin for Carbon DLS printers that pairs mechanical strength with biocompatibility and sterilisability.

The Carbon data sheet gives it an elongation at break of 25% and an ultimate tensile strength of 38 MPa, which makes it useful for tough functional parts in medical and other demanding uses.
