Multi-material 3D printing with FFF and SLA

We propose a solution to achieve a strong interfacial connection between FFF-printed materials and SLA-printed materials by utilizing an ester exchange reaction. Common FFF materials such as PETG and PLA contain an ester structure that can undergo ester exchange reactions with other alcohols in the presence of a strong base such as Triazabicyclodecene (TBD) and […]
