Compatibility with Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether

I am wondering if anyone has any applications using Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether on any of the resins. I know that form labs has a list of solvents that they have tested but it does not include the above solvent. The product would flow through a 3D printed tube, and wouldn’t be sitting in the solvent.

Anyone have any thoughts on this solvent?

Thanks!!

I only know this has been suggested as an alternative to IPA for part cleaning. To which extent it affects printed+post-cured parts I don’t really know - maybe you could order a (custom?) sample part from FormLabs and test it out.

Hello!

Just as an update we performed some inhouse tests on the grey, and clear resins reaction to this particular solvent. We have found the clear to be compatible with this resin.
