Hydrogel‐Based Vat Photopolymerization of Ceramics and Metals with Low Shrinkages via Repeated Infusion Precipitation (Adv. Mater. 8/2026)
Abstract
Hydrogel-Based Vat Photopolymerization The image is an optical micrograph of a cross-section of a 3D-printed copper-hydrogel composite pillar. It shows the in-situ growth of copper within the hydrogels, highlighting the core mechanism of the infusion-precipitation process that transforms soft hydrogel into dense ceramics and metals. More details can be found in the Research Article by Daryl W. Yee and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202504951).
