Before being post-cured, parts 3D printed with resin must be cleaned in order to remove any uncured resin from the 3D printing process. While IPA alcohol is the most used substance, it does have a few disadvantages that make the Loctite Cleaner a superior cleaning solution:

  • A greener, non-flammable and water rinsable alternative to IPA alcohol.
  • Thoroughly cleans even complex parts such as lattice structures.
  • Does not damage "green" or cured parts when used as recommended.
  • Can be used for longer wash cycles when compared to IPA.
  • Leaves no residue, cracks or tackiness.

The Loctite Cleaner is available in two versions: Cleaner C and Cleaner T. The main difference between the two types of the Loctite cleaner is that Cleaner C (SLA/DLP) can be used at temperatures of up to 50 ºC whereas Cleaner T (DLP) can operate safely at temperatures of up to 80 ºC.

Cleaner T is specially formulated to avoid generation of peroxides at elevated processing temperatures, which makes it perfect for the post-processing of more demanding materials such as the Loctite flame retardant 3955 HDT280 FST resin.

The post-processing instructions for both cleaners can be found in the Datasheets in the Downloads section.

The instructions for use of Loctite cleaners are as follows:

Loctite Cleaner C:

  1. Ensure you use personal safety equipment and that the workspace is properly ventilated.
  2. Use Cleaner C at a temperature of 20-50 °C.
  3. Immerse the part in Cleaner C at intervals of 2-4 minutes (typical) with a suitable mixture.
  4. Rinse the part with clean DI water for 1-2 minutes with agitation, optionally rinse with IPA if indicated in the material TDS.
  5. Dry the part properly before UV curing (typical drying settings are 60 minutes at 20-25 °C).
  6. Cleaning time varies depending on resin type, temperature, agitation, and part complexity.

Loctite Cleaner T:

  1. Ensure you use personal safety equipment and that the workspace is properly ventilated.
  2. Use Cleaner T at a temperature of 20-80 °C.
  3. Immerse the part in Cleaner T at intervals of 2-4 minutes (typical) with a suitable mixture.
  4. Rinse the part with clean DI water for 1-2 minutes with agitation, optionally rinse with IPA if indicated in the material TDS.
  5. Dry the part properly before UV curing (typical drying settings are 60 minutes at 20-25 °C).
  6. Cleaning time varies depending on resin type, temperature, agitation, and part complexity.

Validated printing and post-processing workflows must be followed to achieve part properties. The most up-to-date information on workflow for best results can be found here.
