Hi all,

Does anybody out there know if Shore D hardness can be compared directly to
N/mm2?

I am looking to compare different material properties for RP and have data
for a few types of processes. For example:-

FDM ABS P400 = Shore D 78
SLA SL 5195 = Shore D 83
EOS PA 2200 = N/mm2 90

I would be grateful if anyone can help me on this matter.

Regards,
