摘要:
The invention relates to polymerizable compositions which comprise 10-80% by weight of a reactive diluent based on acrylic acid or methacrylic acid derivatives, and 10-50% by weight of a monomer of the indicated chemical formula which is liquid or which can be dissolved in the formulation. The formula may contain amino acid residues or peptide sequences, especially such that are specific of the collagen. These structural elements allow the enzymatic degradation of the polymers of the inventive composition.

The invention relates to a method for producing three-dimensional objects, comprising producing a three-dimensional structure by sequential selective curing of layers of a composition curable with visible and/or ultraviolet light into a solid polymeric material by sequential exposure of the individual layers to UV and/or visible light, whereafter a three-dimensional object is produced by use of the three-dimensional structure thus formed, followed by removing the three-dimensional structure from or of the three-dimensional object, characterized in that removing the three-dimensional structure is accomplished by chemically cleaving the polymeric material as well as simultaneously or subsequently dissolving the material in a solvent or mixed solvent and/or melting the material.

摘要:
Micro-Mold Shape Deposition Manufacturing (&mgr;-Mold SDM) is a method for fabricating complex, three-dimensional microstructures from layered silicon molds. Silicon wafers are etched using conventional silicon-processing techniques to produce wafers with surface patterns, some of which contain through-etched regions. The wafers are then stacked and bonded together to form a mold, which is filled with part material. In one embodiment, the part material is a ceramic or metallic gelcasting slurry that is poured into the mold and solidified to form a part precursor. The mold is removed, and the precursor is sintered to form the final part. The gelcasting material may also be a polymer or magnetic slurry, in which case sintering is not needed. The mold can also be filled by electroplating a metal into it; if necessary, each layer is filled with metal after being bonded to a previously filled layer. Patterned silicon wafer layers may also be combined with macroscopic wax layers formed by Mold SDM to create macroscopic parts with some microscopic parts or features.
摘要:
A method for fabricating sub-millimeter sized parts uses electrodes created from patterned silicon wafers for electric-discharge machining (EDM), in which an electric discharge is generated between a patterned electrode and a conductive workpiece. Workpiece material corresponding to the electrode pattern is removed by electroerosion, and the remaining workpiece contains the desired part. Electrodes are formed by etching stepped patterns in silicon wafers and depositing a thin metallic layer on the wafer. The resulting electrode is used in an EDM machine, and an inverse pattern is produced in the part. Alternately, the silicon wafer pattern is filled by a metal to produce a metal electrode with an inverse pattern. The wafer is removed from the metal, and the metal is used in an EDM machine. The resulting part has the same pattern as the silicon wafer used to create the metal electrode. The metal can be electroplated into the wafer pattern, in which case copper may be used, or metal powder can be hot-pressed into the wafer. Hot pressed electrodes are preferably a mixture of silver and tungsten. The present method is adaptable to highly parallel manufacturing, and can be fully automated using a CAD/CAM system with added process-specific extensions.
