Palaferm Kulzer – Separator for Resin, Gypsum and 3D Models
Référence: H00566
Palaferm Kulzer – separator for resin, gypsum and 3D printed models
Palaferm Kulzer is a precision liquid separator designed for dental laboratory applications requiring clean separation between methacrylate resins, resin models, 3D printed models and gypsum surfaces.
Its ultra-thin separating film helps preserve prosthetic fit accuracy, facilitates film removal after processing and limits surface contamination during polymerization procedures.
A precision separator for dental prosthetics, 3D resin and gypsum models
In the dental laboratory, model isolation directly influences fit accuracy, surface quality and ease of deflasking.
Palaferm creates an ultra-thin separating film designed for prosthetic restorations where dimensional precision remains essential.
It can be used on resin models, 3D printed models, surgical guides, splints, CAD/CAM models and gypsum surfaces requiring precise and uniform separation.
Laboratory advantages
- Ultra-thin separating film helps preserve prosthetic accuracy.
- Only one layer required on resin-based models.
- Two layers can be applied on gypsum models for reinforced insulation.
- Fast drying before application of prosthetic resin.
- Film can be removed easily after processing.
- Simple application with a soft brush without unnecessary thickness.
Dental laboratory applications
- Isolation of acrylic and methacrylate resins in the dental laboratory.
- Processing of resin-based 3D printed models.
- Gypsum models requiring fine and uniform separation.
- Splints, surgical guides and working models.
- Framework models and resin modelling procedures.
- Cases requiring clean surfaces before pressure polymerization.
Recommended instructions for use of Palaferm Kulzer
Remove wax residues, dust, grease and foreign materials to obtain a clean surface before isolation.
Do not work directly from the original bottle in order to preserve the quality of the remaining product.
On resin-based or 3D printed models, apply one thin layer using a soft brush.
On gypsum, apply two thin layers. Allow the first layer to dry completely before applying the second one.
Drying time is generally 2 to 4 minutes depending on the applied thickness and ambient temperature.
Once the separating film is fully dry, the prosthetic resin should be processed without unnecessary delay.
Laboratory tip for gypsum models
Very dry gypsum models should be moistened with water before isolation, generally for 5 to 15 minutes depending on their dryness level.
This humidification helps reduce air bubble penetration into the resin during pressure polymerization and improves separating film uniformity.
Application precautions
- Avoid excessive accumulation, thick areas and residues.
- Apply on a cooled model to improve uniform insulation.
- Do not pour decanted residue back into the original bottle.
- Store the product in its original packaging.
- Product contains highly flammable solvents: follow the safety data sheet instructions.
How many layers should be applied depending on the surface?
| Surface | Recommended application |
|---|---|
| Resin model | One thin layer of Palaferm applied with a soft brush. |
| 3D printed model | One uniform layer, particularly suitable for resin models produced from digital workflows. |
| Gypsum model | Two thin layers with complete drying of the first layer before applying the second. |
| Very dry gypsum | Pre-moistening for 5 to 15 minutes before isolation to reduce air bubbles. |

FAQ — Palaferm Kulzer resin and gypsum separator
Is Palaferm suitable for 3D printed models?
Yes. Palaferm is particularly suitable for resin-based models, including 3D printed models.
It creates a thin separating film between the model and the methacrylate resin used in the dental laboratory.
This thin layer helps preserve model details and prevents excessive thickness that could compromise prosthetic fit accuracy.
How many layers should be applied on a resin model?
On resin models, one thin layer is generally sufficient.
The application should be uniform using a soft brush without excessive product accumulation.
The goal is to obtain a thin and homogeneous film that can be removed easily while ensuring proper separation between the support and the prosthetic resin.
How many layers should be applied on a gypsum model?
On gypsum models, two thin layers are recommended.
The first layer must dry completely before the second layer is applied.
For very dry gypsum models, pre-moistening with water before isolation is recommended to reduce the risk of air bubbles during pressure polymerization.
What is the drying time of Palaferm?
Drying is fast: approximately 2 to 4 minutes depending on the thickness of the applied layer and ambient temperature.
The prosthetic resin should be applied after complete drying of the separating film.
Applying excessive thickness may slow drying and create irregular areas.
Why should excessive separator thickness be avoided?
Excessive thickness may create irregular edges, alter surface precision and complicate final fit accuracy.
In dental prosthetics, the purpose of Palaferm is precisely to produce an ultra-thin separating film.
The product should therefore be applied uniformly without accumulation in thin areas, corners or detailed zones of the model.
How should Palaferm be stored properly?
The product must be stored in its original packaging between -1 °C and 25 °C.
It should not be used after the expiration date.
After decanting, unused residue must not be poured back into the bottle.
As the product contains highly flammable solvents, the safety data sheet must be consulted before handling.
