Abstract
The present disclosure is drawn to 3D printing kits and methods of making 3D printed articles. In one example, a 3D printing kit can include a powder bed material, a fusible fluid, and an activator fluid. The powder bed material can include polymer particles. The fusible fluid can include a radiation absorber. The fusible fluid can be to selectively apply to the powder bed material. The activator fluid can include a non-conductive electroless metal plating activator. The activator fluid can also be to selectively apply to the powder bed material.
