Abstract
The introduction of tomographic volumetric 3D printing is revolutionizing the manufacturing and bioprinting landscape by enabling the rapid creation of complex three-dimensional (biological) structures with high precision down to 20 μm. Despite the recognized role of radical inhibition in volumetric 3D printing, a study of inhibition has remained elusive. Here, A comprehensive framework is presented to study the role of the widely reported radical inhibitor TEMPO in the volumetric 3D printability of a thiol-ene photocrosslinkable photoresist composed of triallyl isocyanurate (TTT) and pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) (PETMP). Through photorheological measurements, kinetic modeling, FTIR spectroscopy, and validation via volumetric 3D printing, the relationship between inhibitor concentrations, the evolution of the shear moduli as well as the conversion as a function of light dose, and volumetric 3D printing is elucidated. The findings in this study provide a robust methodology for predicting optimal printing conditions of photoresists for tomographic volumetric 3D printing, obviating the need for extensive trial-and-error.
期刊介绍:
Reactive & Functional Polymers provides a forum to disseminate original ideas, concepts and developments in the science and technology of polymers with functional groups, which impart specific chemical reactivity or physical, chemical, structural, biological, and pharmacological functionality. The scope covers organic polymers, acting for instance as reagents, catalysts, templates, ion-exchangers, selective sorbents, chelating or antimicrobial agents, drug carriers, sensors, membranes, and hydrogels. This also includes reactive cross-linkable prepolymers and high-performance thermosetting polymers, natural or degradable polymers, conducting polymers, and porous polymers.
Original research articles must contain thorough molecular and material characterization data on synthesis of the above polymers in combination with their applications. Applications include but are not limited to catalysis, water or effluent treatment, separations and recovery, electronics and information storage, energy conversion, encapsulation, or adhesion.
