Scientists used a 3D-printing approach to pattern hydrophobic barriers inside hydrophilic filter paper. These barriers, designed in different geometries, guide liquids along precise paths and shape ...

Many industries rely on 3D-printed components, but their internal structures often limit strength and reliability. New ...

Thermosets, such as epoxy and silicon rubbers, are a class of polymer (i.e., plastic) materials that harden permanently when they undergo a specific chemical reaction, known as "crosslinking." These ...

The field of neuroscience is making incredible strides, with researchers now able to replicate the brain's intricate networks ...

Scientists have integrated binder jet additive manufacturing with an advanced post-processing method to fabricate leak-tight ceramic components, overcoming a key challenge of ceramic additive ...

In a nutshell: As the construction industry faces pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, developments like impact printing offer a solution. By harnessing abundant earth materials and advanced ...

Lung diseases kill millions of people around the world each year. Treatment options are limited, and animal models for studying these illnesses and experimental medications are inadequate. Now, ...

Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...
