Overview

Innovative printing technique demonstrates underwater 3D fabrication, suggesting advances in manufacturing.

Key Points

  • This research aims to enhance droplet-based 3D printing by developing a novel photocontrolled underwater system.
  • Developed a dual photo-responsive droplet system for underwater DOD printing.
  • Utilized spiropyran and alkylphosphonic acid for droplet manipulation under 405 nm light.
  • Employed photoinitiator and monomers for droplet solidification under 365 nm light.
  • Printed simple 3D models, including line structures, triangle walls, and underwater patches.
  • Successfully printed various 3D models underwater using the new printing system.
  • Demonstrated precise control over droplet placement and solidification.
  • Overcame previous challenges with satellite droplet elimination and droplet size accuracy.
