Additive manufacturing (or 3D printing) has re-emerged into the spotlight in the last 5 years driven by the rapid progress in hardware and software. Despite these advances, new materials are required to meet the demands of emerging technologies. Herein, we present a multi-stimuli-responsive hydrogel for direct-write 3D printing. These materials are reversibly stimuli-responsive to temperature and pressure, and can ultimately undergo UV-initiated cross-linking. The syntheses, characterization, and patterning of these materials will be presented.
