Material Information
Good morning everyone,
I am intending to fabricate a model for biomedical applications, and the Xometry staff has suggested stereolithography as the fabrication method and Industrial Transparent ABS-like material, which can meet the basic requirements (strength, low moisture absorption, and transparency).
My concern is about its prolonged use, especially if in contact with liquids that will in turn come in contact with biological material. An additional problem is reuse of the part, that is, between uses it will be necessary to sterilize the part, and since it does not withstand autoclave temperatures, the only way available to me is with ethanol. Does this lead to damage to the material?
Thank you in advance for anyone who can help and give me an answer.
Good day to all,
Federico
