Understanding Photopolymer The Process and Benefits
Drying
STEP 4
Dry the moisture off the material. The photopolymer and the base PETG does not absorb moisture during the washout - drying is to evaporate any standing moisture left on the sheet.
Post Exposure
STEP 5
Post exposure is a second exposure to fully cure, harden and activate the photpolymer. This is the final step in processing photopolymer.

PHOTOPOLYMER SIGNSHOW TO MAKE
5 Easy Steps
Contact With Flim Negative
STEP 1
The first step is to place a high density film negative on top of the photopolymer sheet.
Note: This shows how the Braille will appear after the top coating.
Exposure with UV Light
STEP 2
There is a bank of UV lamps that shine down and pass through the clear areas of the film negative and expose the photopolymer material.
Wash in Plain Tap Water
STEP 3
The unexposed photopolymer gets washed away during the washout process in plain tap water.
The photopolymer effluent is 100% biodegrad-able and goes right down the drain. You are left with the exposed raised images.
