UV Curing Effect(s) on Colorimetric Properties of Test Specimens Created via Stereolithography

This paper presents the results of observing colorimetric change obtained by the impact of UV curing. The test specimens were made by stereolithographic process from photopolymer materials with the addition of cyan, magenta, and yellow dye. To better understand the impact of UV curing on colorimetric permeability properties, specimens were made in five different thicknesses (1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm). The UV curing time was divided into eight intervals of 15 minutes, at the end of which spectral and colorimetric values of each specimen were measured. The difference in color change was defined and shown using the CIELab color system. The conclusion of the conducted tests indicates that specimens with smaller thickness have a greater color change. The correlation between the time interval of UV radiation and the direction of color change was determined.
