In this report, the 3D printability of resorcinol-based phthalonitrile (RPN) was tested by mixing with a suitable photoresin (PR) binder that can be UV cured and afterwards thermally cured or carbonized. The char yield and mechanical properties of the cured RPN/PN mixtures were studied to identify t...
