Photosensitive compositions based on acrylates
First Claim
1. A liquid photosensitive composition consisting of(1) 40 to 80% by weight of a urethane (meth)acrylate having a functionality of 2 to 4 and a molecular weight (Mw) of 500 to 10,000 which is the reaction product of a hydroxyl-terminated polyurethane with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid or the reaction product of an isocyanate-terminated prepolymer with hydroxyalkyl acrylates or methacrylates,(2) 5 to 40% by weight of a hydroxyl group containing aliphatic or cycloaliphatic di(meth)acrylate which is the reaction product of an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic epoxy resin with (meth)acrylic acid,(3) 0 to 40% by weight of a mono(meth)acrylate or of a mono-N-vinyl compound having a Mw of not more than 500,(4) 0.1 to 10% by weight of a photoinitiator, and 0 to 5% by weight of further additives, such that the proportion of components (1) to (4) and any further additives together is 100% by weight and wherein components (1) and (2) are chemically different.

Abstract
A liquid photosensitive composition comprising
(1) 40 to 80% by weight of a urethane (meth)acrylate having a functionality of 2 to 4 and a molecular weight (Mw) of 500 to 10,000,
(2) 5 to 40% by weight of a hydroxyl group containing aliphatic or cycloaliphatic di(meth)acrylate,
(3) 0 to 40% by weight of a mono(meth)acrylate or of a mono-N-vinyl compound having a Mw of not more than 500,
(4) 0.1 to 10% by weight of a photoinitiator,
(5) 0 to 30% by weight of an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic di(meth)acrylate which differs from (2), of an aliphatic tri(meth)acrylate or of an aromatic di- or tri(meth)acrylate, and
(6) 0 to 5% by weight of customary additives, such that the proportion of components (1) to (6) together is 100% by weight.
The composition is a photosensitive composition which can be polymerised by irradiation with actinic light and which is suitable for the production preferably of three-dimensional objects by the stereolithographic technique.
