Rigid, Biocompatible, and Rapidly Printable for Clinical Excellence
BioMed White Resin is an opaque, medical-grade material validated for applications requiring long-term skin contact (>30 days) and short-term mucosal membrane, bone, tissue, and dentin contact (<24 hours). Manufactured in an ISO 13485-certified facility, this resin is the "Form 4 version" of clinical reliability. Its bright white finish provides excellent contrast against anatomy and is optimized for the Form 4B to print up to 4x faster, enabling same-day surgical planning and device iteration.
Key Features
-
Advanced Biocompatibility: Certified USP Class VI and tested for ISO 10993 compliance, ensuring safety for medical device components and patient-contacting tools.
-
Multi-Method Sterilization: Validated for compatibility with autoclave (steam), Ethylene Oxide (EtO), and Gamma radiation, maintaining mechanical integrity after processing.
-
High Contrast & Opacity: The brilliant white finish provides a professional look that clearly defines margins and fine details, making it ideal for the high-glare environment of an operating room.
-
Exceptional Rigidity: With a tensile modulus of 2.0 GPa, it provides the stiffness needed for surgical templates and orthopedic tools that must not deflect under load.
Ideal Applications
-
Surgical Guides & Templates: Rigid cutting and drilling guides for orthopedic or dental procedures.
-
End-Use Medical Device Components: Patient-contacting parts and housings for diagnostic equipment.
-
Anatomical Models: High-contrast models for surgical planning and intraoperative reference.
-
Implant Sizing Models: Fast, accurate trials and sizers for patient-specific implants.
-
Pharmaceutical Equipment: Molds, jigs, and fixtures for drug delivery and laboratory environments.
FAQ
How Does this Differ from the Form 3 Version?
The Form 4 version uses the LFD light engine to achieve significantly faster print speeds and improved dimensional accuracy for high-tolerance medical parts. The mechanical and biocompatibility properties remain equivalent to the trusted Form 3 formulation.
Is it Safe for the Operating Room?
Yes. Because it is sterilizable via autoclave and offers high visual contrast, it is frequently used for patient-specific surgical guides and anatomical models intended for use within the sterile field.
Can I Use this on a Standard Form 4?
No. BioMed White is officially validated for use on the "B" series printers (From 4B). These printers are designed to run the specific biocompatible settings required to guarantee the material's certified properties.
