A recent Cluster publication in Advanced Materials with participation of PI Eva Blasco and Christopher Barner-Kowollik introduces the first example where 3D structures consisting of both degradable and non-degradable segments can be printed via direct laser writing (DLW) from a single photoresist based on a light-stabilized dynamic material. The authors were able to selectively toggle between stable and fully degradable structures, simplifying the direct laser writing manufacturing process of multi-functional materials significantly, which typically requires the use of separate resists and consecutive writing efforts to achieve degradable and non-degradable material sections.
