Ceramics are amazing materials—strong, light and with amazing thermal properties. Now, researchers have developed a new way to 3D print the materials more effectively than in the past, and the results ...

Researchers have used 3-D printing to create ceramic structures from silicon polymers. Scientists at HRL Laboratories LLC in Malibu, Calif., announced their process overcomes the limitations of ...

The dual-phase interpenetrating architecture was came out from the microstructure of natural materials. Based on the such unique structure, bioinspired P/CCSs was designed and fabricated via 3D ...

This graphic shows the structure of a ceramic created from a Kansas State University-patented waterlike polymer. The ceramic has a random structure that provides stability at high temperatures. The ...

Coating ceramic schwarzites, 3D-printed lattices, with a thin polymer helps keep them from shattering under pressure, according to materials scientists. A thin shell of soft polymer can help keep ...

While the method of flash sintering can reduce the temperatures and time required to process ceramics in comparison with traditional methods, the technique often ...

Engineered living materials typically consist of soft hydrogels, polymers, or biofilms seeded with microorganisms that allow the materials to sense and degrade toxins, deliver therapies, and repair ...

Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions or allow them to occur at lower temperatures or pressures. 1 When catalysts are used to control and enhance reactions, the process is called ...

The demand for high-precision, custom-made ceramic parts has increased as global industries, from semiconductors to medical equipment, raise their performance standards. In this environment, advanced ...
