Experimental measurement of thermal conductivity of stereolithography photopolymer resins

Abstract The rise in the use of additive manufacturing highlights importance knowing properties materials employed this technology. Therefore, for commercialization thermal applications with technology, heat management is essential. Here, computational modelling often utilised to simulate transfer various components, and precisely values conductivity one key parameters. In line research, paper includes experimental study three different types resin used by stereolithography. Based on a test bench designed researchers from Public University Navarre, which measures contact resistances conductivities, analysis kinds carried out. This measuring machine employs temperature difference between faces flux that crosses studied sample determine mentioned results are successful considering constitution material consistent insulating materials. ELEGOO standard stands out among others due its low 0.366 W/m K. Article Highlights Calculating resins Contributing knowledge-based design sink measurement bench.
