Which 3D Printing Materials are Chemical Resistant?

We frequently receive questions regarding the chemical resistance filaments for 3D printing. In response, we’ve created a Chemical Resistance Information Guide for 3D printing filaments.

We have also summarised chemical resistance per material below (H= High Resistance, VH = Very High Resistance).
