The focus is to increase the strength of the resin to allow for a greater range of objects to be printed with SLA printers. The paper will look at the different types of carbon nanotubes that can be used, what weight percent of nanotubes in resin will most likely work best in a printing environment based on surface hardness and cure time, and comparative destructive testing. It was shown with a small sample size that the carbon nanotubes composite had lower strength but greater toughness over pure neat resin.en-US3D printingStereolithography 3D printingCarbon nanotubesWaterShed™ resinDuluth Journal of Undergraduate ResearchUniversity of Minnesota DuluthArticle
