Micromolding of UV-curable materials is a patterning method to fabricate microstructured surfaces that is an additive manufacturing process fully compatible with roll-to-roll systems. The development of micromolding for mass production remains a challenge because of the multifaceted demands of UV curable materials and the risk of demolding-related defects, particularly when patterning high-aspect-ratio features. In this research, a robust micromolding approach is demonstrated that integrates thiol-ene polymerization and UV LED curing.
