A new type of "ink" makes it possible to 3D print electrochemically switchable, conducting polymers using a light-based ...

Researchers have come up with a 3D printing method using liquid metal that's claimed to produce structures at least 10 times faster than existing metal additive manufacturing processes, though it does ...

The concept of rheology refers to a branch of physics that studies fluids. It examines how materials behave when they flow or ...

Researchers in Kiel have developed a laser-based 3D printing process for glass. It significantly simplifies 3D printing with ...

Concrete 3D printing reduces both time and cost by eliminating traditional formwork, the temporary mold for casting. Yet most ...

In January 2016, researchers from the Air Force Research Laboratory started focusing on the ability to 3D-print parts for the Air Force, specifically polymer architectures that can replace heavier and ...

Self-healing materials are being developed by RIT researchers to further improve additive manufacturing, specifically 3D-printed products, to make them stronger and more resilient. Christopher Lewis ...

Engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of the cost of current methods. Rutgers engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of ...

The speed of light has come to 3D printing. Northwestern engineers have developed a new method that uses light to improve 3D printing speed and precision while also, in combination with a ...

Chemists have developed a way to integrate liquids directly into materials during the 3D printing process. This allows, for example, active medical agents to be incorporated into pharmaceutical ...
