Vat photopolymerization (VPP) based three-dimensional (3D) printing, including stereolithography (SLA) and digital light projection (DLP), is known for producing intricate, high-precision prototypes with superior mechanical properties. However, the challenge lies in the non-recyclability of covalently crosslinked thermosets used in these printing processes, limiting the sustainable utilization of printed prototypes. This review paper examines the recently explored avenue of VPP 3D-printed dynamic covalent network (DCN) polymers, which enable reversible crosslinks and allow for the reprocessing of printed prototypes, promoting sustainability. These reversible crosslinks facilitate the rearrangement of crosslinked polymers, providing printed polymers with chemical/physical recyclability, self-healing capabilities, and degradability. While various mechanisms for DCN polymer systems are explored, this paper focuses solely on photocurable polymers to highlight their potential to revolutionize the sustainability of VPP 3D printing.
基于光固化聚合(VPP)的三维(3D)打印,包括立体光刻(SLA)和数字光投影(DLP),以生产具有复杂精细、高精度且机械性能卓越的原型而闻名。然而,挑战在于这些打印过程中使用的共价交联热固性材料不可回收,限制了打印原型的可持续利用。这篇综述文章探讨了最近探索的VPP 3D打印动态共价网络(DCN)聚合物的途径,该聚合物能够实现可逆交联,并允许对打印原型进行再加工,从而促进可持续性。这些可逆交联促进了交联聚合物的重排,为打印聚合物提供了化学/物理可回收性、自愈能力和可降解性。虽然探讨了DCN聚合物系统的各种机制,但本文仅关注光固化聚合物,以突出其革新VPP 3D打印可持续性的潜力。
