eSUN eResin-PLA Bio Photopolymer - Clear 1 Litre

As 3D Printing grows in popularity and we see more and more average people become more awesome by getting involved in 3D Making, we’re seeing an equal level of development on the manufacturer side, with new polymers and specialized resins being produced to cater to both the excitement of new 3D Makers, as well as their ever-expanding needs in the world of DLP & SLA 3D Printing. This is why we simply love eSUN, as they are constantly at the forefront of these developments, not only bringing flexible, tough and rigid polymers to the industry, but also stepping up the game with more specialized casting resins, extreme precision polymers, and of course the eco-friendly variations known simply as eResin-PLA.

Although these bottles of eSUN eResin-PLA Bio-Photopolymer may look quite similar to other 3D Resins, eSUN have specially made this resin as a means to provide an eco-friendly, biodegradable alternative to the many chemical-rich options that are available. This, however, doesn’t mean that it’s safe to touch, but what it does mean is that you don’t have to stress about throwing prints directly into the bin, while enjoying the exact same quality and other attributes that you could expect from eSUN Standard Resins. Just remember that it’s still important to utilise those gloves and facemask when working with these resins, since they still do have similar particles that can cause problems after too much exposure, but you can enjoy the fact that your 3D Resin Printing won’t be causing irreparable damage to the environment for your models and designs.

The unique colour (or lack of colour) offers an intriguing aesthetic that is like slightly opaque glass, and this of course can be post-processed afterwards to remove the layer lines and make prints more transparent. And while some could argue that this is somewhat “boring” compared to some of the exciting 3D Resin colours you can get, we absolutely love how it really shows off all of the fine details so well – from all angles! Great examples of impressive clear DLP prints would be buildings, machinery, jewellery and other intricate models, as the transparency allows you to see all of the fine details hidden within, really accentuating on the subtle or pronounced complexities of each model.

Shenzhen eSUN Industrial Co., Ltd was established in 2002 in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and has rapidly become one of the leading international suppliers of 3D Printing Filament. They specialise in research, development and production of degradable polymer materials, and have grown their catalogue of filaments to include PLA, ABS, PC, PVA, and a wide range of other polymers and copolymers.

Their list of exclusive filament formulas include unique materials like wood, aluminium, bronze and other materials to create highly specialised filaments that can stretch, bend, be moulded or otherwise behave in very unique ways. Their filaments are also commonly characterised by their absolutely round shape, extremely low diameter tolerance, uniform colours and impressively stable melting points. These characteristics, in combination with their long-term insistent policy of “Best Quality, Reasonable Price” has garnered them a large share of the market, with their reputation commonly preceding them within knowledgeable online and offline 3D Printing communities.

eSUN’s popularity in the industry has also helped to produce sustainable partnerships with many internationally famous 3D Printer manufacturers and distributors, with DIYElectronics having sole distributorship rights to provide their 3D Printing Filaments to South Africa and neighbouring African countries.
