Context and methodology
This dataset was collected during a research project on photopolymers for 3D printing within the framework of a PhD thesis at the Institute of Applied Technology, TU Wien. It entails the synthesis of monomers and thereof derived polymer network containing trioxanes as degradable motif via (photo)acid, and full characterization thereof. Production of the network via 3D printing and its degradation are phototriggered, semi-orthogonal processes. The data is further discussed in the publication cited below.
