Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein is a formulation that includes a hybrid composite material, at least one photopolymerizable monomer, one or both of a free radical photoinitiator and an oxidizable radical co-producer. The hybrid composite material is formed from an organic semiconducting material and a conductive material, where the organic semiconducting material is bonded to the conductive material. In specific embodiments, the hybrid composite material is polydopamine/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PDA/MWCNTs) hybrid composite or polydopamine/gallium zinc oxide (PDA/GZO) hybrid composite. Also disclosed herein are a method of initiating and/or sensitizing photopolymerization and method of additive manufacture via photopolymerization using said formulation.
