This project aims to develop an environmentally-friendly approach to naturally derived photoinitiators which are applicable to 3D printing through low-energy, visible light-induced polymerisation, and explore their application in the fabrication of biocompatible polymeric materials. Traditional polymer manufacturing processes such as thermopolymerisation employ hazardous chemicals which present health and environmental risks. This project expects to expand fundamental scientific knowledge of photochemistry, polymer chemistry and biology through the development of a novel, economical, clean, commercially-relevant platform (3D printing) for the fabrication of polymeric materials.

本项目旨在通过低能耗、可见光诱导聚合，开发一种环境友好的方法，使天然衍生的光引发剂适用于3D打印，并探索其在制造生物相容性聚合物材料中的应用。传统的聚合物制造工艺，如热聚合，使用危险化学品，对健康和环境构成风险。该项目希望通过开发一种新颖、经济、清洁、商业化的聚合物材料制造平台（3D打印），扩大光化学、聚合物化学和生物学的基础科学知识。
