INTRODUCTION
Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, fabricates three-dimensional objects in a layer-by-layer process. Owing to its unique ability to create complex geometries that cannot be fabricated using traditional manufacturing techniques (i.e. injection molding, forging, and machining), 3D printing is already used as a manufacturing technique in many fields. Industry experts forecast large capital investments in AM over the next decade1 that may grow the market to $1 trillion annually by 2030.2 Innovations in material ACS Paragon Plus Environment

a variety of industrial and
commercial disciplines including medicine,3,4 dentistry,5 aerospace,6 automotive,7 military,8 food,9,10 steel and metal,11,12 tissue engineering,13-15 electronics,16 and pharmaceuticals17,18 with a wide spectrum of materials such as ceramics, solids, metals and alloys, powders, pastes, liquids, polymers, as well as living tissues.
Material jetting, material extrusion, vat photopolymerizaion, and powder bed fusion are the primary means for AM of polymers. The desired manufacturing process is selected depending on the type of polymer to be manufactured and its physical state (i.e. thermoset, thermoplastic, liquid, filament, or powder). In material jetting,19 material (photo-polymers, plastics) is deposited/jetted through a nozzle onto the build platform. Layers are then cured under UV light and the model is built layer-by-layer. Material extrusion consists of two basic techniques, fused filament fabrication (FFF)2,20 and directink-write (DIW).21,22
In FFF, thermoplastics are drawn through a heated nozzle and deposited onto a print bed layer-by-layer. In DIW, the polymer (photo curable polymers, hydrogels) is deposited on a print bed through a nozzle based on its shear-thinning ability, and the model will be ACS Paragon Plus Environment

PBF methods includes direct-metal laser sintering (DMLS), electron beam melting (EBM), selective heat sintering (SHS), selective laser melting (SLM), and selective laser sintering (SLS). Other AM techniques include sheet lamination (ultrasonic additive manufacturingUAM for metals and laminated object manufacturing-LOM for papers) and directed energy deposition-DED for polymers, ceramics, and metals.
VAT PHOTOPOLYMERIZATION-STATE OF THE ART
Overview
Among the aforementioned different classes of AM techniques, VP is considered as the current state of the art owing to its unique superior print resolution, greater efficiency, surface finish, versatility, and printing accuracy. VP usually employs epoxy and acrylate based monomers/oligomers, which are photo-curable via cationic and radical polymerization, finally yielding thermosets.

In laser-based VP systems such as stereolithography (SLA), manufacturing begins with the deposition of a single layer of photopolymer on the build platform using a recoating mechanism. A UV laser rasters the required pattern on the resin surface, therefore crosslinking the liquid photopolymer into a solid part. Subsequent layers are fabricated by recoating a fresh layer of photopolymer and patterning it with the UV laser. Laser power, scanning speed and exposure time, resin composition, and photo-initiator are key parameters that govern the final quality of printed parts. Another popular VP embodiment is mask-projection vat photopolymerization (MPVP), commonly referred to as DLP or projection stereolithography. MPVP has gained popularity due to its ability to project patterns with feature resolution as small as 30 µm.24 In this embodiment, energy is delivered to the resin by projecting a 2D pattern that represents the layer to be manufactured. MPVP systems may be used in a top-down for printing large-area, multiscale parts or in a bottom-up configuration for high-speed, high-resolution manufacturing.25 The optical resolution of DLP based VP systems is not suitable for manufacturing nanometer scale features. Two-photon lithography fits in this design space.26,27 Here, two beams of UV light are projected into the resin. The resin solidifies

The remaining sections will provide a detailed discussion regarding recent advances of VP-based AM for several classes of materials.
Performance Materials
Polyimides
Hegde et al. recently introduced a groundbreaking effort to 3D print all-aromatic highperformance engineering thermoplastic, similar to Kapton®, using mask-projection SLA (MPSL) technique.30 These 3D printed structures exhibited an average Young’s modulus of 2.2 GPa, Ultimate tensile strength of ~ 80 MPa, storage modulus (E’) greater than 1 GPa until 300 °C, and a Td5% of 600 °C. These remarkable thermo-mechanical properties of this material along with the scalability of 3D structures using scanning MPSL, offer potential impact on a variety of applications in water filtration, gas separation, automotive, and aerospace industries. Jana et al. later introduced a facile synthetic route for this process. In this work, a commercially available poly(amic acid) (PAA) precursor polymer was directly incorporated with a photo-curable cross-linker, 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl ACS Paragon Plus Environment

methacrylate (DMAEMA), to form PAA-DMAEMA salts using an acid-base reaction. The photo-curable salt was then 3D printed using SLA and finally imidized to form a polyimide similar to Kapton®.31 This facile strategy offers scale-up opportunities for this highperformance polyimide and will be highly attractive for aerospace and automotive applications.
Graphene
Graphene is an incredibly stiff and conductive material with a Young’s modulus of 1 TPa and an electrical conductivity of 8000 Sm-1. Nevertheless, many graphene foams currently lack structural integrity.
Hensleigh et al. demonstrated the fabrication of
graphene in an ordered manner through unit cell structures.33 Parts were fabricated through a resin comprised of crosslinked graphene oxide sheets into a gel. The gel was then dispersed with diacrylates and photoinitiator for printing. The green part was then subjected to pyrolysis to burn out the organic binder and reduce the graphene oxide to a structural graphene aerogel. The graphene aerogel foams had greater strength and lower density than traditional graphene foams and show potential applications in catalysis, tunable thermal, and fluid flow devices.

Elastomers
There is a continuing need for VP-based high-strain elastomers (>200% strain) for commercial applications. VP often utilizes oligomers to avoid high viscosity resins, unfortunately, crosslinked oligomers don’t offer the same performance as crosslinkable high molecular weight polymers. Traditional elastomers owe their strain capacity to their high molecular weight and high molecular weight between crosslinks for thermoplastic and thermoset elastomers, respectively. Currently, Carbon 3D’s EPU 40, an elastic polyurethane, is the only commercial VP elastomer to exceed 200% strain. Carbon 3D reports EPU 40’s stress and strain at break as 8 MPa and 250% respectively.34 Patel et
al. greatly exceeds Carbon 3D’s materials with a combination of commercially available urethane diacrylates from Allnex. Combination of Allnex’s Ebcryl 8413 and 113 with diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO) resulted in printed tensile samples with strains exceeding 1000%. Soft actuators and silver coated parts displayed potential utility in soft robotics and flexible electrical switches.35
While there are limited VP-based high-strain elastomers in the literature and commercial sources, recent literature offered elastomers with strains >75%. Scott et al. and Sirrine ACS Paragon Plus Environment

et al. demonstrated an increase in the strain of hydrogenated polybutadiene and polysiloxane oligomers as the chain extender dithiol content increased, respectively. Upon UV irradiation of the dithiols, chain extension occurred increasing the molecular weight between crosslinks to fabricate a part with lower crosslink density and greater flexibility. Hydrogenated polybutadiene with 0.75 equivalents displayed 80% strain and 0.75 MPa stress at failure36 while polysiloxane with 0.75 equivalents displayed 125% strain and 0.3 MPa stress at failure.37
Ceramics
While VP is typically associated with fabrication of polymeric parts, ceramic printing has made large strides since Griffith and Halloran’s introduction of printing alumina in 1996. Fabrication of ceramics with VP begins with a ceramic-photopolymer slurry (≥35 vol% ceramic) printing resin with the addition of photointiator and dispersants for viscosity control. The resin is printed forming a composite green part, which is subjected to a postprocessing pyrolysis step to remove the polymeric binder and allow the ceramic particles to sinter. While other AM techniques, such as SLS use approximately 100 μm particles, VP utilizes ceramic particles with diameters of tens of microns or nano-scale and at high ACS Paragon Plus Environment

loadings for achieving bulk densities and isotropic shrinkage. While this general process has remained unchanged, novel additions have been made to create thin layers when viscosities become too high. Song et al. utilized a tape casting recoater for even thin layers and improved resolution.38 Current VP of ceramics use a recoating blade or print using a bottom-up system, enabling the z-stage to dictate the layer thickness. Numerous ceramics have been printed using the techniques described for a variety applications such as silica (SiO2) for investment casting molds,39 alumina (Al2O3) for dental crowns,40 zirconia (ZrO2) for custom cutting tooling,41 yttria-stabilized-zirconia (YSZ) as solid electrolytes in fuel cells,42 barium titanate (BT) and lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT) for piezoelectric components.38,43,44 Until recently, ceramic VP was limited to opaque solids, however, Kotz et.al. in 2016 demonstrated the fabrication of fused silica particles to form glass with comparable transparency and surface roughness on the nanometer scale, comparable to traditionally manufactured silica products.45 Wang et al. and Hazan et al. demonstrated that silica glass and silicon carbide, respectively, are achievable through use of silicon-containing moieties and controlled atmosphere during pyrolysis.46,47 Currently, ceramic resins, which are commercially available, are Formlab’s silica- filled

Supramolecular Polymers
The enhanced processability of supramolecular polymers due to the reversibility of supramolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic aggregation, guest/host interactions, and π- π stacking, makes them ideal candidates for processing via AM, which opens the door for advances in next generation biomedical devices and tissue scaffolds.48 Currently, VP lacks a significant amount of supramolecular polymers mainly due to processing limitations.49,50 However, some interesting research efforts are discussed as follows. Incorporation of depsipeptide, a derivative of L-alanine, into poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), brought both supramolecular and biodegradable functionality for successful 3D VP while maintaining cell viability.51,52 Morris et al. reported SLA 3D-printed, ear-shaped, tissue scaffolds using hydrogen bonding interactions between poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) and chitosan.53 Yue et al. described ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Advances in materials over the past two decades have helped improve the resolution, degradability, cytotoxicity, mechanical properties of tissue scaffolds fabricated with VP. In addition, various chemical factors and additives have been used to improve adhesion and growth of cells seeded on the printed tissue scaffolds. Finally, recent work has demonstrated the possibility of incorporating cells into the resin, avoiding the need to seed cells onto the scaffold after printing. Many researchers have focused on the use of synthetic photopolymers for scaffold fabrication with VP because of their rapid photopolymerization, chemical tunability, and good mechanical properties.56 Early work developed poly(propylene fumarate) and diethyl fumarate (PPF/DEF) resins for the fabrication of biodegradable scaffolds with VP.57 Scaffolds fabricated with PPF/DEF have been used with many cell types owing to good mechanical properties, low cytotoxicity, and excellent printability. A more recent example of PPF/DEF printing was demonstrated by Kim et al., who fabricated tissue scaffolds with pore sizes of 170 μm using the photopolymer.58 Upon post-curing, they seeded pre-osteoblasts on the fabricated scaffolds, followed by culturing in a multi-

A combination of high resolution VP with a multi-stimulus bioreactor system fabricated tissue-scaffolds for potential utility in bone tissue regeneration. Neiman et al. has employed VP to fabricate photopolymerizable PEG-based hydrogel scaffolds with multiple open channel geometries coupled to commercially available filters such as polycarbonate and polyvinylidene fluoride, designed for post-seeding with primary hepatocytes.59 High cell viabilities and robust hydrogel-filter bonding were achieved by optimizing SLA energy dose, photoinitiator concentration, and pretreatment conditions. Due to the ability to incorporate various biofunctional ligands and the tunability of the mechanical and transport properties of the printed hydrogel scaffolds, this may become a commercially viable technique for evaluating drug effectiveness and toxicity. Elomaa et al. described preparation of photo-crosslinkable poly(ε-caprolactone)-(PCL) based tissue engineering porous scaffolds by SLA 3D printing.60 Branched PCL oligomers were methacrylated and photo-crosslinked during the printing process using Irgacure 369 photoinitiator, inhibitor, and dye.

In another study, Seck et al. introduced biodegradable PEG/Poly(D,L-lactide) (PDLLA) based hydrogel structures fabricated with VP.61 The utilized photopolymerizable aqueous resin was composed of PDLLA-PEG-PDLLA, visible light photoinitiator, dye, and inhibitor in dimethyl sulfoxide/water. Hydrogels with non-porous and gyroid pore network architectures were fabricated with narrow pore size, excellent pore interconnectivity and mechanical properties. Human mesenchymal stem cells successfully adhered and proliferated. Potential applications include tissue engineering, cell transplantation, and drug delivery.
Pharmaceuticals and Drug Delivery
Recent work has shown that the formulation of new materials for VP can enable applications in pharmaceuticals and drug delivery. For example, Goyanes et al. demonstrated the printing of salicylic acid loaded nose-shaped patches using VP for the treatment of acne.62 The drug was dissolved in mixtures of PEGDA and PEG and the ACS Paragon Plus Environment

system was crosslinked during printing. These VP fabricated patches offered better resolution and higher drug loading capability (1.9% w/w) without drug degradation during printing. In addition, they also demonstrated higher drug diffusion rates (229, 291 µg/cm2 within 3 hours) for the two VP-based formulations than with fused deposition modeling (FDM). Unlike products currently on the market, VP would allow for the fabrication of patient-specific drug loaded devices that conform to the shape of a patient’s facial features. In a similar study, Wang et al. 2016 described drug-loaded tablets printed using VP. Two model drugs, paracetamol and 4-aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA), were dissolved in a PEGDA-based resin to allow for their incorporation into a printed construct. PEG 300 was also included to promote drug release. No degradation of either drug occurred during VP fabrication of tablets. In contrast, degradation of 4-ASA was observed in tablets fabricated using FDM. This again confirmed the suitability of SLA to 3D print thermolabile compounds owing to the minimal localized heating during the printing process. Moreover, the technology offered simple and fast fabrication of drug-loaded oral-dosage forms with drug-release characteristics that are potentially personalized to each patient.63

4D printing Future AM industry is advancing towards smart materials. These are defined as materials that change their shape or function upon exposure to certain stimuli such as temperature, light, pH of the medium, solvent, and electric fields.69,70 This class of materials introduces 4D printing which fabricates dynamic/active structures replacing three dimensional stationary ones in conventional AM processes. These mainly includes AM of shape-memory polymers.

deal with chemical reactions induced by direct absorption of mechanical energy and hence, complements the conventional activation methods such as heat, irradiation, and electrochemistry.75 However, only extrusion based 3D printed mechanochromic materials are reported to date.76 Since VP based AM requires efficient photo-curing kinetics of monomers, mechanochemical approaches for VP based AM are challenging. Table S1 summarizes the above mentioned recent advances in VP-based AM.
CHALLENGES AND FUTURE OUTLOOK IN MATERIALS DESIGN Despite the aforementioned remarkable capabilities of VP-based AM, the technique maintains some challenges, which need to be addressed in future materials design. These limitations are broadly categorized into three sub-sections such as material properties, photodegradation, and toxicity.
Material Properties The materials catalogue for VP has traditionally been limited to simple acrylate or epoxy based monomer/oligomer backbones.27 Recently, advances in VP have demonstrated fabrication with previously unprocessable polymers such as fully aromatic polyimides,30,31 polyurethanes from Carbon 3D,77 and poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK).78 However, the development of new polymers, especially elastomers and commercially important

polymers such as polyolefins, polyamides, remains very limited. The primary reason is attributed to the inherent viscosity requirements in VP processes. Commercial VP technologies have been limited to printing photopolymers with low viscosities (0.25-10 Pa⋅s).49 Performance elastomers employ high molecular weight backbones to impart mechanical strength, and this results in an increase in photopolymer viscosity. High viscosity photopolymer increases the chance of damaging printed features during recoating, therefore limiting the size of the printable features. To address this issue, researchers have investigated the use of (1) novel chemistry and resin synthesis and (2) novel processing techniques. Novel chemistry, such as simultaneous chain extension and crosslinking36,37 and Carbon 3D methods, have lowered photopolymer viscosity during fabrication, but resulted in the formation of high molecular weight between crosslinks for networks after photocuring. Currently these methods are limited to few material families only (i.e. siloxanes, polybutadienes), but these strategies hold promise for other use with other polymer families too.

colloids capable of interpenetration, has opened VP to a new range of polymer families allowing process flexibility, even for potential nano-scale printing.79,80 Processing techniques, such as the use of high temperature to lower viscosity, have shown promise for printing new photopolymer systems with low printing times, higher conversion, and better mechanical properties in green bodies.81 While thermal stability of the photopolymer hinders processing at very high temperatures, the process opens the door to unlock new photopolymer systems by combining high print resolution with improved mechanical properties or even desired properties for 4D-printing.81 The addition of non-reactive solvents have also played an important role in lowering photopolymer viscosity.30,31 In addition to lowering viscosity, solvents also allow for dissolution of high performance polymer backbones, making it a very powerful technique for materials expansion. This technique produces organo-gels with very low strength. Nevertheless, several post-printing steps are required here to reduce the shrinkage caused by solvent removal. More attention is required to understand how geometry and oregano-gel strength affect printing parameters, shrinkage, and warpage of the final printed parts. Other polymer parameters such as modulus and photo-curing kinetics should also be considered in materials design for VP-based systems, especially for large scale manufacturing. Moreover, current 3D printable materials also suffer from the lack of concurrent flexibility and high tensile strength that are necessary for engineering load-bearing tissues like tendons, ligaments, and muscles.82 In addition, most naturally available biomaterials such as alginate, chitosan have limited resources, low stability, and poor mechanical properties, which affect the structural integrity of the engineered tissues, if used directly.

Therefore, future materials design should be directed towards novel synthetic candidates addressing these issues. Future research based on hybrid scaffolds, which combines both natural and synthetic bodies, would be of much importance.
Photodegradation Another area of concern hindering industrial use of photopolymers is the loss of mechanical properties over time. 3D printed parts exposed to UV light potentially display a reduction in mechanical performance due to potential photo-induced chain-scission.83 While most consumer polymers are susceptible to such damage, more work is required in this area to identify suitable modifiers that improve the UV performance of a printed part, especially in cases targeting for durable mechanical properties. Toxicity Toxicity is an area of importance in designing materials, especially for the pharmaceuticals and tissue engineering fields. Low molecular weight polyacrylate oligomers contain potentially hazardous monomers in the object after printing that lead to regulatory challenges and stability issues in pharmaceutics.64 Therefore, residual analysis is required for pharmaceutical applications. Also, use of less toxic initiators with visible light initiation capability such as lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate (LAP), Eosin Y disodium salt is also a sound approach in addressing toxic issues in these fields.49 Also, laser

thermal energy could lead to cellular damages and cytotoxicity.84 Hence, strategies such as controlling printing temperature for rapid gelation of a bio-ink,85 and modifying crosslinking densities86 are helpful to overcome existing limitations.
