Abstract
A resin formulation that may be used for additive manufacturing, for example, to provide a water-breakable object is generally described.
Claims25
A resin for additive manufacturing, the resin comprising:
- an ionic component in an amount between greater than or equal to 20 wt. % and less than or equal to 95 wt. % based on the total weight of the resin, wherein the ionic component comprises a vinyl, acrylate, methacrylate, or acrylamide moiety;
- an oligomer in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt. % and less than or equal to 45 wt. % based on the total weight of the resin;
- a monomer in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt. % and less than or equal to 45 wt. % based on the total weight of the resin;
- and
- a crosslinking agent in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt. % and less than or equal to 30 wt. % based on the total weight of the resin.

A method of additive manufacturing, the method comprising:
- providing a resin comprising:
- an ionic component in an amount between greater than or equal to 20 wt.% and less than or equal to 95 wt.% based on the total weight of the resin, wherein the ionic component comprises a vinyl, acrylate, methacrylate, or acrylamide moiety;
- an oligomer in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt.% and less than or equal to 45 wt.% based on the total weight of the resin;
- a monomer in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt.% and less than or equal to 45 wt.% based on the total weight of the resin;
- and
- a crosslinking agent in an amount between greater than or equal to 1 wt.% and less than or equal to 30 wt.% based on the total weight of the resin;
- and forming a three-dimensional object from the resin by additive manufacturing.
