Surgical Guide Resin
Key Features
The current TDS describes RF-DB-04 as a transparent, high-precision resin for implant-guide and locator workflows. It reports high strength, fast forming, detail reproduction and high surface hardness. The same TDS also classifies the application as “Dental model” and states that the resin is not approved for medical application on the human body.
Use-status notice
Before any clinical or patient-contact use, confirm the current intended use, regulatory status and applicability with RayForm and the responsible local professional.

Post-Processing & Storage
-
1
Wash – Clean the model using isopropyl alcohol (IPA) in an ultrasonic cleaning machine. Avoid high-frequency shock or forceful brushing to protect fine surface details.
-
2
Dry – Thoroughly blow the model dry with a hair dryer or similar tool.
-
3
Remove Supports – Remove supports before post-curing. Removing them after curing can easily damage the support contact surface.
-
4
Post-Cure – For applications requiring certain toughness, UV cure for 5 minutes. Store printed parts in a cool, dry place after curing.
Storage
Store below 25°C in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Keep away from visible light to prevent resin polymerization and gelation.
Safety
Eyes: Flush with clean water for at least 20 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water. Not approved for food, drink, or medical application on the human body. See MSDS for details.

TDS-Described Dental Model and Guide Workflow
The TDS describes transparent implant-guide and locator workflows, while its application field states “Dental model.” Confirm the current intended use and applicable regulatory documentation before any clinical or patient-contact use.
Frequently Asked Questions
- QHow does the TDS describe RF-DB-04’s use?
The narrative describes transparent implant-guide and locator workflows, but the application field says “Dental model” and the safety section states that the resin is not approved for medical application on the human body. - QWhat are the main measured properties?
The TDS reports 83–87 Shore D hardness, 61.4 MPa tensile strength, 65.6 MPa flexural strength, 1700 MPa flexural modulus and 69°C HDT at 0.45 MPa. - QWhich printing technologies and machines are listed?
The TDS specifies LCD and DLP processing and provides parameters for Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K S, Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra and Saturn 3 Ultra, Creality HALOT-MAGE Pro, Anycubic Photon Mono 4 Ultra and Photon Mono M7 Pro. - QHow should printed parts be cleaned and post-cured?
Clean with isopropyl alcohol in an ultrasonic cleaner without high-frequency shock or forceful brushing, blow dry thoroughly, remove supports before post-curing, and UV cure for 5 minutes when toughness is required. - QCan this page establish clinical approval or a sterilization protocol?
No. The current TDS provides no sterilization protocol and states that the resin is not approved for medical application on the human body. Confirm current product and market documentation before any clinical or patient-contact use.
