Model and
Support
Material
Model
and
support
materials
are
made
of
resins.
Although
precautions
must
be
taken
when
handling
resins
directly,
all
model
and
support
materials
used
by
the
Eden
system
are
handled
in
sealed
cartridges.
Normally,
operators
of
the
Eden
printer
should
never
be
directly
exposed
to
dangerous
materials.
Most
of
the
following
recommendations
for
handling
resins
apply
to
the
unlikely
event
of
a
leak
or
spill.
If
this
should
occur,
follow
the
specific
instructions
printed
on
the
resin
cartridge
used.

Store
cartridges
of

in
a

area
with
adequate
ventilation,
between
16
‐
27

away
from
areas
where
food

Ensure
that
resin
does
not

there
is
any

that
resin
may
splash
into
the
eyes,
wear
safety
goggles.
Minimize
direct
contact
with
the
skin
to
prevent
irritation
and
other
health
hazards.
Prolonged

¾
To
prevent
respiratory
irritation,
ventilate
all
areas
where
resins
are
directly
handled
or
exposed
to
the

totally
replace
the
air
20
times
per
hour.
