Methods for forming melt processable, actinic radiation polymerizable and crosslinkable adhesives are described. In certain versions, the adhesives or pre-adhesive compositions include two initiators and are polymerized and/or crosslinked by exposure to actinic radiation such as UV light or electron beam radiation. Also described are pre-adhesive compositions including polymerizable monomers, articles including the adhesives, and various methods and systems related to the adhesives and their application. In addition, various apparatuses are described for polymerizing or crosslinking the compositions.

This invention provides the following active energy ray-curable coating composition: an active energy ray-curable coating composition comprising (A) a polymerizable unsaturated group(s)-containing acrylic resin having a weight average molecular weight in the range of 5,000 to 30,000, (B) a urethane (meth)acrylate having a weight average molecular weight in the range of 1,000 or more but less than 5,000 and containing an average of two to four polymerizable unsaturated groups per molecule, (C) a polymerizable unsaturated compound having a weight average molecular weight in the range of 200 or more but less than 1,000 and containing an average of two to nine polymerizable unsaturated groups per molecule, and (D) a photopolymerization initiator, the molecular weight between crosslinks of a cured coating film obtained by applying the active energy ray-curable coating composition being in the range of 300 to 900 g/mol.

Additive manufacturing methods use a surrogate slurry to iteratively develop an additive manufacturing protocol and then substitutes a final slurry composition to then additively manufacture a final component using the developed additive manufacturing protocol. In the nuclear reactor component context, the final slurry composition is a nuclear fuel slurry having a composition: 30-45 vol. % monomer resin, 30-70 vol. % plurality of particles of uranium-containing material, >0-7 vol. % dispersant, photoactivated dye, photoabsorber, photoinitiator, and 0-18 vol. % (as a balance) diluent. The surrogate slurry has a similar composition, but a plurality of surrogate particles selected to represent a uranium-containing material are substituted for the particles of uranium-containing material. The method provides a means for in-situ monitoring of characteristics of the final component during manufacture as well as in-situ volumetric inspection. Compositions of surrogate slurries and nuclear fuel slurries are also disclosed.
