Stewart McCorkle Faculty Fellow Brett G. Compton coauthored a comprehensive review on the physics of direct-ink writing (DIW) ...

As an additive manufacturing technique enabling complex geometric fabrication, direct ink writing (DIW) has established itself as a cornerstone technology for flexible electronics production. However, ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The colors in the world around us are produced through either absorption of light by molecules (pigmentary colors) or scattering of light by nanostructures (structural colors).

Ceramic additive manufacturing represents a transformative approach to fabricating components with complex geometries and tailored mechanical properties. By leveraging techniques such as digital light ...

Another technique, called direct ink writing (DIW), also involves extruding stuff out of a nozzle. In this case, however, that stuff is a gelatinous polymer "ink" which chemically transitions into a ...

Additive free, multimaterial 3D printing is achieved for milk-based products without temperature control. Researchers from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) developed a method ...

Scientists have developed a new "ink" that allows objects to be 3D-printed out of wood. The material could reduce the amount of wood that gets wasted in the manufacturing of various products, plus it ...
