DSM's Somos® NanoTool produces strong, stiff, high-temperature resistant composite parts on conventional stereolithography machines. This material is heavily filled with non-crystalline nanoparticles allowing for faster processing. It exhibits superior sidewall quality, along with excellent detail resolution compared to other composite stereolithography materials.

Applications
Somos® NanoTool's smooth surface quality and high initial modulus make it an excellent resin for metal plating-a growing application which saves time and money as an alternative to metal prototypes. It's also ideal for creating strong, stiff parts with excellent high heat resistance, including wind tunnel models for aerospace and automotive applications, as well as rapid tooling for injection molding.
