THREE-DIMENSIONAL INKJET PRINTING USING RING-OPENING METATHESIS POLYMERIZATION

Abstract:

Methods for fabricating three-dimensional objects by 3D-inkjet printing technology are provided. The methods utilize curable materials that polymerize via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) in combination with toughening agents for fabricating the object. Systems suitable for performing these methods and kits containing modeling material formulations usable in the methods are also provided.
