The Somos business, located in New Castle, Del., provides stereolithography liquids and laser sintering powders used in solid imaging to make three-dimensional objects from digital data. According to Ken Lawson, president of DSM Desotech, Somos' technology will complement the company's UV- and electron-beam-curable materials business, enabling the development of upgraded materials.
DSM Desotech said it plans to keep the business in its present location, as well as maintaining its work force.
