▎ 摘　　要

NOVELTY - Composition of matter (10) comprises macroparticles comprising particles of one or more continuous phase matrix materials, and functionalized microparticles contained at least partially in the one or more matrix material. The composition of matter may comprise particles such as (12 and 14) of two different materials. USE - Composition of matter is used in the method of manufacturing composite material. ADVANTAGE - By using the composition of matter, one can implement a manufacturing process similar to selective laser sintering (SLS). Instead of each layer of powder being fused together, the heat or other energy will instead cause the powder particles to form a linked particle network between the particles, creating a stronger finished product. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a method of manufacturing composite material, which involves: (a) producing macroparticles comprising a continuous phase thermoset matrix material mixed with a thermal initiator; (b) depositing a layer of the matrix material onto a powder bed; (c) applying a focused heat source to the layer of matrix material to selectively cure portions of the layer; (d) repeating the depositing and applying until a final shape is formed; and (e) removing uncured powder from the final shape. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic view of a composition of matter. Composition of matter (10) Particles (12, 14)
