In resin 3D printing, consistent part quality depends on maintaining a uniform particle suspension. Particle settling, clarification, and agglomeration alter light scattering during the print – leading to cure depth variation, delamination, and premature shelf-life failure. Visual inspection is far too slow to catch early phase changes, and dilution alters the resin's native behavior.

Join us to learn how Static Multiple Light Scattering (SMLS) using the TURBISCAN enables rapid, non-destructive stability and redispersion testing for concentrated photopolymer, ceramic, and metal 3D resins.

What You Will Learn:

• Detect instability up to 200x faster: Identify micro-changes in native, concentrated samples long before phase separation is visible to the naked eye.
• Go Beyond Single Stability Scores: Use localized metrics (like clarification layer thickness) alongside the TURBISCAN Stability Index (TSI) to accurately predict multi-hour vat performance.
• Evaluate Redispersion: Quantify whether settled resin can be restored through mixing, vat circulation, or inversion prior to printing.
• Optimize Accelerated Testing: Select the ideal temperature conditions to speed up testing cycles without masking true formulation behavior.

Topics:

• Why stability matters in 3D printing resins
• How the TURBISCAN works
• Identifying destabilization patterns
• Comparing formulations and evaluating redispersion results
