The present invention relates to a light curable material comprising a splayed layered material, at least one aqueous dispersible polymerizer, and at least one aqueous soluble N-oxyazinium compound, wherein the polymerizer polymerizes upon exposure to light. The present invention also includes a method for curing a material comprising providing layered material, splaying the layered material, combining the splayed layered material with a polymerizer and an aqueous soluble N-oxyazinium compound, and subjecting the combination to light for a period of time sufficient to effect the polymerization of the polymerizer.
