An additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin for additively manufacturing a additively manufactured article, the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin comprising:
- a cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte;
- an anionic organic acrylate monomer;
- a chemical modifier selected from the group consisting essentially of a photoabsorber and an ion dispersion solvent comprising an organic reactive diluent;
- and
- a photoinitiator.
A process for additively manufacturing an additively manufactured article from an additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin, the process comprising:
- subjecting the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin to a polymerizing light, the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin comprising:
- a cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte;
- an anionic organic acrylate monomer;
- a chemical modifier selected from the group consisting essentially of a photoabsorber and an ion dispersion solvent comprising an organic reactive diluent;
- and
- a photoinitiator;
- polymerizing the anionic organic acrylate monomer in the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin in response to subjecting the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin to the polymerizing light, such that an anionic poly-acrylate electrolyte is formed from the anionic organic acrylate monomer;
- complexing the cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte with the anionic poly-acrylate electrolyte;
- and
- forming a (poly-ammonium)-(poly-acrylate) electrolyte complex in response to complexing the cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte with the anionic poly-acrylate electrolyte, such that the (poly-ammonium)-(poly-acrylate) electrolyte complex comprises the cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte, the anionic poly-acrylate electrolyte, and an ionic linkage between an ammonium group of the cationic poly-ammonium electrolyte and an acrylate group of the anionic poly-acrylate electrolyte to additively manufacture the additively manufactured article from the additive manufacturing polyelectrolyte resin, wherein the additively manufactured article comprises the (poly-ammonium)-(poly-acrylate) electrolyte complex.
