A photocurable composition, including (a) a photocurable monomer, e.g. a
cationically curable monomer and/or a radically curable monomer; (b)
reactive particles comprising a crosslinked elastomeric core, e.g. made
of polysiloxane material, and a shell of reactive groups on an outer
surface of the core, wherein the reactive groups comprise epoxy groups,
ethylenically unsaturated groups, or hydroxy groups; and (c) an
appropriate photoinitiator, e.g. a radical photoinitiator; and a cationic
photoinitiator. A method of making a 3-D object from such a composition
and a 3-D object made by the method are also provided. The cured
composition generally has a smooth surface. The use of the reactive
particles makes the composition more stable and the particles do not
readily separate out.
