Infusion multimaterial actinic spatial control three-dimensional printing methods

Abstract

Provided are methods for fabricating a multimaterial object which comprise fabricating an object comprising a first region and a second region, the first region and the second region differing in their swelling behavior in an infusion solution comprising a swelling solvent and an infusion material dissolved therein; exposing the fabricated object to the infusion solution to form an infused fabricated object; and removing the swelling solvent from the infused fabricated object to form a multimaterial object comprising the first region, the second region, and the infusion material, wherein more infusion material is distributed throughout one of the first region and the second region than the other. The multimaterial objects are also provided.
