Two-photon induced polymerization in a porous polymer film to create multi-layer structures†
Abstract
Two-photon induced polymerization for three-dimensional (3D) printing has attracted increasing attention. Here, we report the two-photon induced polymerization of triethylene glycol divinyl ether (TEGDVE) in a porous polymer film using 4,4′,4′′-nitrilotribenzoic acid (NTB) as the photosensitizer and diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate (HIP) as the initiator, enabling the printing of multi-layer structures in the porous support.
