Background Ceramics have been found useful in increasingly diverse applications in modern industry because of their high mechanical strength, low thermal conductivity, and high wear and corrosion resistance. In addition, the bio-compatibility of some ceramics allows them to be used for body prostheses, dental, and tissue engineering scaffolds. These...

Visible to near-infrared light activated photopolymer resins

BackgroundResin 3D printing has many advantages, such as high precision, smooth surface finish, and rapid printing speed. Conventional LCD or DLP devices use ultraviolet (UV) light to activate photo-initiators in the resin. A cheaper, less power hungry, and more biocompatible alternative would be to use visible light to activate photo-sensitizers in...
