Researchers at the Technical University of Vienna have just cracked the code on advanced light curing. The team has developed a method for printing tough photopolymers using EVS (ester‐activated vinyl sulfonate ester). As a result, they claim the eventual material is far more suitable for 3D printing, biomedicine and microelectronics. Robert Liska is leading the research […]
