Original Abstract

In this study, photocurable acrylate resins with different concentrations of zirconium oxide (50% and 70% by weight) are polymerized according to a radical mechanism. The research focused on three main aspects: 1) the effect of ZrO2 nanoparticles on the kinetics of photopolymerization, 2) the optimization of digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing conditions for nanoparticle-filled and unfilled resins, and 3) the influence of nanoparticle addition on the thermomechanical properties of the 3D-printed structures. Photopolymerization kinetics are examined using photo-DSC and photo-rheology to assess the impact of nanoparticles on polymerization rates, shrinkage, and induction times. Despite challenges related to limited light penetration in highly nanoparticle-filled resins, optimal printing parameters are established, enabling the fabrication of high-performance 3D-printed materials. The inclusion of ZrO2 nanoparticles significantly enhances the thermomechanical properties of the final products, demonstrating the potential for advanced applications in additive manufacturing.
