today, Wavelength-selective 3D printing with hybrid epoxy–acrylate resins enables ultrafast, high-res multimaterial parts! Big congratulations to all involved! Give it a read: rdcu.be/et5T9 ⚡️
Exciting new publication today in ACS Central Science (@ACSPublications) “Multicolor Digital Light Processing 3D Printing Enables Dissolvable Supports for Freestanding and Non-Assembly Structures”! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs… 🎉👏
This work highlights the ability to spatially control epoxy/acrylate polymerization to obtain cross linked and dissolvable regions to solve the ever present problem of manual support removal in 3D printing. Check it out!

TTA-UC resins formulated using a common acrylic monomer🛢️exhibited good shelf stability in comparison to an analogous Type II resin operating under green light, allowing for easy bottling and long-term storage.📦7/8
The advancement of light-based💡3D printing platforms and LED efficiency make TTA-UC a more viable mechanism for high resolution features under accessible conditions. We hope this application-oriented approach inspires further exploration into 3D printing driven by TTA-UC. 8/8
