Zusammenfassung: | Provided herein is a method of making an object having a matte surface finish by stereolithography. The method may include: (a) stereolithographically producing an intermediate object by polymerization of a dual cure resin with a first light having a first peak wavelength, the object having excess unpolymerized resin retained on the surface thereof; (b) separating a portion of said excess unpolymerized resin from said object while leaving a thin film of unpolymerized resin on the surface thereof; (c) partially curing said thin film by exposing said thin film to a second light at a second peak wavelength; and then (d) further curing said intermediate object by heating, microwave irradiating, or both heating and microwave irradiating, to produce an object having a matte surface finish. |
