Abstract

In an example of a method for three-dimensional (3D) printing, a build material composition is applied to form a build material layer. The build material composition includes a polyamide. The polyamide is selectively melted, based on a 3D object model, in at least a portion of the build material layer to form a molten portion including molten polyamide. An epoxy agent is selectively applied, based on the 3D object model, on the molten portion of the build material layer. The epoxy agent includes a polyfunctional epoxy, which crosslinks the molten polyamide in the molten portion.
