Every value links to the document that states it. "Not sourced" means no citable source states it (or only a specification minimum); figures computed from it are left out too.
SLA Resin Standard is 3D printed: its properties depend on build direction and print settings; these are typical values.
Questions Is Drywall stronger than SLA Resin Standard? SLA Resin Standard is stronger: its tensile strength is 60 MPa against 1.5 MPa for Drywall (40x).
Which is stiffer, Drywall or SLA Resin Standard? SLA Resin Standard is stiffer: Young's modulus 2.75 GPa against 1.5 GPa for Drywall, so the same part in SLA Resin Standard deflects less under the same load.
