What your process engineer actually checks
Toughness that survives post-cure
xPP405's 100% elongation and 51 J/m Izod are post-cure numbers, and over-curing this resin costs you exactly that toughness. We share the exact recipe — xClean then IPA, 2 × 30 min in XiP Cure — so parts land on the datasheet.

Resin selection, exposure tuning, post-cure and finishing — answered by engineers who print Nexa3D LSPc in-house. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard.
Nexa3D xPP405 Black in the 1.5 kg smart cartridge is the polypropylene-like LSPc photopolymer for the XiP and XiP Pro desktop printers — tough and semi-rigid, with roughly the stiffness of molded unfilled polypropylene and about 100% elongation at break.
Why engineers choose xPP405
The LSPc resin you reach for when parts have to bend, snap and survive handling.
PP-like toughness
About 100% elongation at break and 51 J/m notched Izod — parts deform and absorb impact instead of shattering like a standard rigid resin.
Drop-in smart cartridge
The 1.5 kg cartridge loads straight into the XiP or XiP Pro — the printer reads the material and pulls the right settings. No decanting, no manual vat fill.
Stiffness of unfilled PP
1300 MPa tensile modulus and Shore D 76 put xPP405 in the same stiffness band as molded, unfilled polypropylene — familiar behaviour for design validation.
Biocompatibility screening passed
Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5) and irritation (ISO 10993-23) both pass per the manufacturer’s datasheet. Flammability rated UL94 HB at 2 mm.
How we supply it
Lot-sealed cartridge, a validated print profile and exact post-cure recipes in every order.
Sealed smart cartridge
Every 1.5 kg cartridge ships sealed and chip-tracked with its Nexa3D lot. Load and print — no mixing, no additives.
Validated XiP profile
The cartridge carries Nexa3D’s validated LSPc profile; our engineers add exposure and orientation guidance for your parts.
Wash & cure to spec
xClean (max 2 min) then IPA (max 5 min). Post-cure 2 × 30 min in XiP Cure, or 1 × 60 min in xCURE, to reach datasheet values.
Typical applications
Where a tough, chemically stable, PP-like material earns its place.

Values from the manufacturer’s xPP405-Black technical data sheet (2024 rev.), measured post-wash and post-cure — identical to the 5 kg NXE format. The cartridge changes, the chemistry does not.
Printer compatibility
- XiP — 7.7 × 4.5 × 8.3 in / 195 × 115 × 210 mm build volume, 405 nm LSPc.
- XiP Pro — 11.5 × 6.4 × 16.1 in / 292 × 163 × 410 mm build volume, 405 nm LSPc.
- For the NXE 400 / 400Pro, order xPP405 Black in the 5 kg container instead.

Why source xPP405 through Additive Plus
- We run LSPc daily. Print profiles, exposure tuning and post-cure settings from a team that prints these resins in-house — not a catalog reseller.
- US inventory, real support. Ships from US stock; volume orders and official POs handled by a materials engineer, not a form.
- Full workflow under one roof. Resin, wash and cure stations, spares and application support — one partner for the whole LSPc line.
