  • Patent number: 11964428
    Abstract: The present invention provides a bottom plate of a resin tank for three-dimensional printing, which is manufactured through the following steps: substrate surface roughening step: treating the upper surface of a transparent substrate by using a plasma, or disposing a composite film on the upper surface of the transparent substrate to form a non-smooth surface structure having pores; substrate surface modification step: sequentially performing an activation treatment and a fluorination treatment on the upper surface of the transparent substrate; and stabilizer filling step: applying a stabilizer to the upper surface of the transparent substrate to fill the stabilizer penetrates into the pores on the upper surface of the transparent substrate. The low surface energy film reduces the adhesion of the hardened photosensitive material, and the stabilizer maintains the structure of the low surface energy film, so that the resin tank bottom plate has both oleophobic and hydrophobic properties.

  • Patent number: 10967563
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for reducing a drawing force in a forming process of a photocurable material by adding a radical scavenger capable of terminating free radical polymerization into a substrate for carrying the photocurable material. The method comprises: providing a mold release composition at least comprising a radical scavenger and a molding agent; and forming a mold release film from the mold release composition by curing forming or by combining with an upper surface of a plate, thereby preparing the substrate. In this way, during the light curing reaction of the photocurable material by irradiation with a light source, the radical scavenger in the upper surface of the substrate contacting with the photocurable material can react with free radicals in the photocurable material, such that the photocurable material forms an uncured layer for which light curing does not occur on the upper surface of the substrate.
