1. Overview of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (BDMA)

N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (BDMA) is an important organic compound with the chemical formula C9H13N. It is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a unique amine odor. The molecular structure of BDMA consists of a benzene ring and a dimethylamino group. This unique structure imparts many excellent chemical properties.

These properties allow BDMA to exhibit excellent catalytic properties in a variety of chemical reactions. In addition, BDMA also has good thermal and chemical stability, which provides guarantees for its high-temperature processing and long-term use.

In industrial production, BDMA is mainly used as an epoxy resin curing agent, a polyurethane catalyst and an organic synthesis intermediate. It can significantly improve the reaction rate and improve product performance, so it has been widely used in the fields of coatings, adhesives, electronic materials, etc. With the rapid development of 3D printing technology, the application potential of BDMA in these emerging fields has gradually emerged.

2. Current status of 3D printing technology development

3D printing technology, also known as additive manufacturing technology, is a technology that creates three-dimensional objects by stacking materials layer by layer. 3D printing technology experiences since its birth in the 1980sWith rapid development, it has been widely used in various fields. According to the printing principle and material, 3D printing technology can be mainly divided into the following categories: photocuring molding (SLA), melt deposition molding (FDM), selective laser sintering (SLS) and digital light processing (DLP).

Current 3D printing materials mainly include polymers, metals, ceramics and composite materials. Among them, polymer materials dominate due to their rich variety and good processing properties. However, with the continuous expansion of application fields, the performance requirements for 3D printing materials are becoming increasingly high. For example, in the field of aerospace, materials need to have high strength and high temperature resistance; in the field of biomedical, materials need to have good biocompatibility and degradability.

These needs drive innovation and development of 3D printed materials. The development of new materials, the modification of existing materials and the composite use of multiple materials have become the hot spots in the current research on 3D printing materials. Against this background, BDMA, as an organic compound with excellent performance, has gradually attracted attention for its application potential in 3D printing materials.
