In one aspect, inks for use with a three-dimensional printing system are described herein. In some embodiments, an ink described herein comprises a thiol monomer component and an ene monomer component. Moreover, in some cases, an ink described herein further comprises an additional (meth)acrylate monomer component differing from the ene monomer component. In some such cases, the additional (meth)acrylate monomer component can be polymerized separately from the thiol and ene monomers of the ink.

Provided is a method for favorable bonding between an adherend and an adhesive body, which is capable of suppressing an ink layer, which is formed by an ultraviolet-curable ink, from being smudged while increasing convenience of a bonding operation between the adherend and the adhesive body, and the like. The method for bonding a medium to a foil body includes an ink layer formation process of spotting an ultraviolet-curable ink, which is ejected from an inkjet head, to a medium and irradiating ultraviolet ray to the ultraviolet-curable ink to cure the same, thereby forming an ink layer; a lamination process of laminating the medium and a foil body with the ink layer being sandwiched therebetween; and a bonding process of heating the ink layer, enabling the ink layer to function as an adhesive, and bonding the medium to the foil body.
