Three-dimensional (3D) printing involves layer-by-layer deposition of a material. The length of a molecule is typically large compared to the thickness of a printed layer. As a consequence, a degree of alignment of the molecules in the plane of a layer is expected. The effects of the printing conditions on the molecular structure (molecular alignment) of 3D printed polymer are reported for the first time, as shown by the electric permittivity perpendicular to the layers printed by bottom-up stereolithography, using a UV-curable acrylate ester resin. The relative permittivity (4.1-4.3) increases slightly with decreasing layer thickness (50-25 microm), due to the increased molecular alignment when the layer thickness decreases. All values are higher than the value (3.5) for the bulk polymer. The permittivity decreases with increasing curing time, due to the networking and the consequent decrease in molecular alignment. It decreases with increasing light intensity, due to the increase in the degree of curing. Increase in the resin age prior to printing increases the permittivity, due to the age hindering curing. The permittivity decreases with increasing aging time after printing, due to the post-curing; the decrease is more pronounced when the layer thickness is larger, because of the greater difficulty of curing a thicker layer and the consequent greater effect of post-curing. The low degree of molecular alignment obtained after 3 h of aging for a large layer thickness of 50 microm is similar to that of the bulk polymer, as indicated by the similarity in the relative permittivity. The technique reported here may be used for sensing the condition of 3D printed polymer structures without the use of attached or embedded sensors.
