resinmatrix. It is frequently used in place of a traditional hand layup for a number of reasons,including increased control over resin content, decreased scrap and mess, and generallyimproved reproducibility during processing. [1] Following impregnation of the pre-polymericresin system into fibers, the prepreg is considered B-staged. At this point in processing, the resinhas undergone a partial cure and begun to crosslink. As such, storage in freezers is required, toprevent further crosslinking of the material into a fully cured C-stage product. [2]Prepreg is manufactured primarily using two processes: solvent coating and hot melt coating. Inthe solvent coating process, fabric is threaded between metal rollers and run through a resin bath,then fed

projector type. The team also needed to decide on resin to purchase. The team wasdirected towards a site called muve3d.net6 for possible resin products by MakerJuice. Afterresearching them, it was decided to use SubG+ resin for the project. Attached below is a briefsummary on the resin properties according to the resource above6:  Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) friendly, fast curing, low shrink (3.5%) material.The trade-off is higher viscosity (90cP at 25°C compared to SubG which is 12cP), but the benefit of the SubG+ resin is that it holds pigment for longer without as much settling. SubG and SubG+ cures under UV A, B, and C light around 420 nm. You can cure it with a DLP projector, a UV laser, or UV Light Emitting LEDs
