Abstract:
According to some aspects, a container is provided for use in an additive fabrication device configured to fabricate parts by curing a liquid photopolymer to form layers of cured photopolymer. The container may comprise a laminated multi-material layer having an elastic first layer that aids in separation of cured photopolymer from the container in addition to a barrier layer on an upper surface that protects the first layer from exposure to substances in the liquid photopolymer that may not be compatible with the material of the first layer.
