The main reason any print is fragile is that it is over cured. Resin that is subject to over curing during or after printing becomes more brittle. Changing the profile settings will help if you have more brittle resin than it should be right after printing. All parameters during formation of the layers affect the stiffness of the model.
Also , after the print is washed and dried with alcohol, if it is post cured or left under light, it continues to harden and increase its fragility.
