Burning High Temp Resin Dangerous?

Hello all,

I am looking to use high temp prints as shielding for welding applications. I've done preliminary tests with poorly cured (hoping to get the new curebox and fix that) prints and found that they hold up to the heat to some degree - and crack if I have them clamped too tightly (as expected), however they certainly release a smell and some fumes when they burn. There may have also been a slight bit of smoke on the first weld attempted.

I am curious as to if these fumes are dangerous, and at what level of exposure? As the MSDS given is for the resin and not the cured print I do not have an apples to apples comparison. I imagine much like the resin it is not a carcinogen but I can see that it may be slightly toxic.

Does anyone have some more concrete information on this?

Thank you,
