Post-processing and cleaning chemistry for VPP — from print to validated part

This white paper covers cleaning, washing, post-curing and final conditioning of VPP printed parts, with emphasis on the relationship between cleaning chemistry and final mechanical, surface and regulatory performance.

Post-processing is part of the material system. Cleaning solvent, exposure, temperature, drying, purification and post-cure conditions can alter surface quality, mechanical performance, residual species, extractables behaviour and dimensional stability.
