Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a resin relating to rapid prototyping. The System comprises: (a) an apparatus for producing a three-dimensional object from a light-sensitive material, wherein input optics (IO) and output optics (OO) facilitates transmission of light emitted from an illumination source via individually controllable light modulators (LM) of spatial light modulator (SLM) to an illumination area (IA), wherein said output optics (OO) enable focusing of the pattern of light from spatial light modulators (SLM) on an illumination area (IA); and (b) a resin composition comprising: (A) an acrylate component with (B) a methacrylate component and (C) a photo initiator.

Abstract: A destructurized native starch material is described which has a water content in the range of about 10 to 25% by weight and that its mass average molar mass is reduced by a factor of 2 to 5000 compared to its original mass average molar mass. The destructurized starch is produced by heating a chemically non-modified starch material having a water content in the range of about 5 to 25% by weight of the total weight of the composition in the presence of a chain scission catalyst in a closed volume to an elevated temperature sufficient to form a thermoplastic melt and until the mass average molar mass is reduced by a factor of 2 to 5000.
