UpNano provides a diverse range of materials, including those for biocompatible applications, specifically designed to match the high-speed capabilities of the NanoOne printing system. As an open material platform, the NanoOne is compatible with more than just our featured resins, offering you flexibility and versatility in material selection.

Standard Resins:

• UpPhoto - The high-performance standard resin for functional components which are fully cured directly after 3D printing and require no thermal or optical post-processing.
• UpDraft - The resin, optimized for throughput, is ideal for producing initial prototypes. The chemical reactivity of the resin allows increasing the layer spacing, enabling ultrafast 3D printing of microparts.

Optically Transparent Resins:

• UpFlow - The optical transparency and low viscosity of this resin make it ideal for printing microfluidics with channels smaller than 50 μm. Additionally, the resin exhibits low autofluorescence and the material is certified as non-cytotoxic. UpFlow obtains its final properties after a UV post-curing step.
• UpOpto - This resin features high optical transparency and exhibits ultralow autofluorescence, transmission down to 350 nm and is non-cytotoxic. UpOpto achieves its final properties after a UV post-curing step.

High-Resolution Application Resins:

• UpSol - During printing, the resin is gel-like, allowing for the production of complex structures with overhangs and undercuts. Besides 2.5D and 3D microstructures, free-floating elements can also be printed.
• UpBrix - The refractive index of the material is matched to the immersion oil of high NA objectives for minimal distortion. After printing, UpBrix parts exhibit a high degree of crosslinking.

Special Application Resins:

• UpThermo - Developed in cooperation with Cubicure, this resin boasts an exceptionally high heat deflection temperature (HDT-B) of greater than 300 °C. Paired with high mechanical stiffness, it is ideal for static high-temperature applications.
• UpBlack - The visually black and non-transparent resin is a masterpiece for 2PP printing. It has light blocking properties in the UV and VIS spectral range, while remaining transparent to NIR and IR radiation, enabling the printing of fine details.
• UpQuartz - In cooperation with Glassomer, UpNano has developed a nanocomposite slurry for manufacturing fused silica (SiO2) parts using 2-photon polymerization. Printed green parts are converted into fused silica through thermal debinding and sintering.

Bioprinting Resins:

• Together with the Belgian company BIO INX®, UpNano has established a material portfolio that is cell-compatible and optimized for the NanoOne platform. These resins include:
  • HydroBioINX© U200 - Cell-interactive, gelatine type B-based hydrogel, derived from natural collagen. Unique two-component bio resin enabling printing in the presence of living cells with low autofluorescence.
  • HydroTechINX© U100 - Bioinert, synthetic hydrogel material for bottom-up and top-down printing with high mechanical integrity. No structural deformation in aqueous medium, due to low water absorption capacity. Suitable for cell seeding.
  • HydroTechINX© U200 - Bioinert, mechanically robust, soft, and flexible hydrogel resin. Orange-red viscous liquid, allowing for VAT mode or in-chip printing. White flexible solid after development in dry state. Opaque when swollen in water. SEM imaging compatible because of its drying and rehydrating properties. Suitable for cell seeding.
  • DegradINX© U100 - Robust, biodegradable thin-film material degrades over a period of 2–5 years, solid state cross-linking: suitable for both bottom-up and top-down printing. Extremely high resolution down to <500 nm, supports overhangs, for cell seeding.
