About
Viktoria Wieser is a leading researcher in the field of advanced polymer chemistry and additive manufacturing, with a focus on sustainable and high-performance materials. Her work centers on the development of vitrimers—a class of polymers that combine the durability of thermosets with the reprocessability of thermoplastics—and their application in high-resolution 3D printing. Her most-cited paper, "High resolution additive manufacturing with acrylate based vitrimers using organic phosphates as transesterification catalyst" (2021, 65 citations), represents a significant breakthrough by demonstrating how organic phosphate catalysts enable efficient transesterification in acrylate-based vitrimers, allowing for precise, layer-by-layer fabrication without sacrificing material recyclability. This contribution addresses a critical challenge in additive manufacturing: creating objects that are both structurally robust and environmentally friendly. Wieser’s work has garnered attention for its potential to revolutionize industries from aerospace to biomedical devices, offering a pathway to reduce plastic waste while maintaining high-resolution print fidelity. Her research not only advances fundamental polymer science but also provides practical solutions for sustainable manufacturing, making her a notable figure in the intersection of materials chemistry and engineering.
