Abstract Photocurable 3D printing (SLA or DLP) materials have garnered considerable attention due to their remarkable efficiency and precision in manufacturing. However, the presence of covalent crosslinking makes recycling reuse printed extremely challenging. Here a novel approach crosslinker‐free photo‐curing (via liquid metal (LM) composite hydrogels is reported, leveraging surface‐initiated photoinduced atom radical transfer polymerization (SI ‐photo ATRP). The pre‐synthesized PHEA‐Br macroinitiators are grafted onto surfaces LM nanoparticles (LMNPs) by mechanical sonication, stabilizing LMNPs within resin solution while simultaneously generating active sites for SI ATRP. During ATRP process, polymer chains sufficient length form hydrogen bonds with multiple LMNPs, effectively transforming into points. By integrating aqueous photoATRP system catalyzed carbon dots, LM@polymer hydrogel complex structures successfully established through DLP technology. versatility investigated employing HEA, OEGA 480, AAm as monomers solution, respectively. Notably, all can be degraded NaOH solution. Furthermore, LM@polymer‐based networks exhibit self‐repairing capabilities, serve underwater adhesives, conduct electricity. This work offers new insights designing sustainable photocurable

The presence of solvated metallic elements with high mobility enables many applications liquid metals (LMs) such as in catalysis, phase change materials, welding, soldering, and additive manufacturing. While the processes crystallisation dissolution LM resemble those traditional solvents, they have not been studied great detail. Furthermore, crucial observations solute mass transport speeds (flux) evaluated yet, despite being discovered within catalytic environments. Thereby for like materials manufacturing, fundamental chemistry is underexplored. We hypothesise that a deeper understanding these properties obtained by studying phase-change behaviour solid metal colloidal systems. employed transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to examine Ga-Cu system. This approach involves in-situ heating cooling TEM analysis specialised holder. shows upon heating, Ga2Cu crystal begins dissolve from its outermost layers, progressing until complete occurs. Recrystallisation then occurs supercooled environment, where rapidly crystallises. process substantial LM, allowing estimation directional atom flux Cu (valued -0.02 mol/m2s at 178 °C).
