Curing under UV light typically takes 30-60 seconds with a broad-spectrum UV lamp emitting light with a wavelength range between 320-365 nm. The minimum energy required is 20-40 milliwatts per cm2.

In the past few years, UV curing has been refined, using LED light sources that generate much less heat than traditional mercury-based lamps, while at the same time using substantially less energy ...

Vitralit UC 6686 is a newly developed light curable epoxy adhesive from manufacturer Panacol. Upon exposure to ultraviolet light, it cures in seconds to form a crystal clear, extremely hard, scratch ...

And carbon fiber, being black (opaque), blocked the light, so it made UV impractical for carbon composites, and this still tends to be the case. In 1986, however, BASF Corporation (Ludwigshaven, ...

TORRINGTON, Conn., Jan. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dymax, leading manufacturer of rapid light-curing materials and equipment, introduces Low Shrink™ OP-81-LS epoxy that cures in seconds upon ...

However, the vast majority rely on UV light to cure prints. [douwe1230] had been using a resin printer for a while, and grew tired of having to wait for sunny days to cure parts outside.

However, I happened to have access to the syrup-thick UV resin from an SLA printer and it occurred to me to see whether I could smooth a 3D print by brushing the resin on, then curing it.
