Title: Use of latent metathesis polymerization systems for additive manufacturing

Abstract

The invention is directed to latent metathesis-active resin compositions and additive manufacturing approaches. The latent metathesis-active compositions comprise at least one latent metathesis catalyst, at least one curable metathesis-active monomer, and optional fillers, photosensitizers, and/or a secondary monomer resin system for dual-cure. A method comprises extruding a latent metathesis-active resin from a dispensing apparatus and spatially triggering a ring-opening metathesis polymerization by directed irradiation with light or directed application of a thermal stimuli for direct-ink write printing of objects. Another method uses a latent metathesis-active resin for vat photopolymerization and stereolithographic printing of objects.
