Abstract
Ferroelectric photoactive suspensions for stereolithography have been developed by dispersing a high volume fraction of barium titanate powder in hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) with the aid of effective photoinitiators and dispersants. Rheological properties showed a shear thinning behavior and a low viscosity at a shear rate adequate for the recoating process. The barium titanate–HDDA suspension showed poor curing behavior due to the large refractive index difference between the ceramic and the resin. The coarse barium titanate–HDDA suspension showed a smaller surface reflectance and a larger cure depth than the fine barium titanate–HDDA suspension.Keywords
