Provided according to some embodiments is a polymerizable liquid useful for the production of a three-dimensional object comprised of polyurethane, polyurea, or a copolymer thereof by additive manufacturing, the polymerizable liquid comprising a mixture of: (a) a first blocked or reactive blocked prepolymer comprising a compound of the formula X(A), where X is a hydrocarbyl group, n is at least 3, and each A is an independently selected substituent of Formula I: (I) where R is a hydrocarbyl group, R' is O or NH, and Z is a blocking group; (b) a polyol and/or polyamine chain extender; (c) optionally a reactive diluent; and (d) a photoinitiator. A method of use of the polymerizable liquid to make a three-dimensional object by additive manufacturing and prepolymer compounds useful for the same are also provided.
