Abstract

An optical three-dimensional shaped item excelling in the smoothness of molding end face. There is provided a three-dimensional shaped item composed of, superimposed one upon another, multiple cured resin layers having a given configurational pattern formed by irradiating with actinic energy rays a molding face consisting of an actinic energy ray curable resin composition, wherein at least part of an uneven region of molding end face of the three-dimensional shaped item, the degree of unevenness thereof is reduced to smoothness by segregation of a component contained in the actinic energy ray curable resin composition and/or a substance derived from the component. Also, there is provided an actinic energy ray curable resin composition for the three-dimensional shaped item.
