Although plant-based polylactic acid (PLA) bioplastic is acclaimed for its biodegradability, it can take quite a long time to degrade if the conditions aren't quite right. Bearing this fact in mind, ...

A commonly used material in 3D printing is plastics. The reason being is that it is readily available, cost effective, and allows for rapid prototyping. However, plastics pose an environmental concern ...

In recent years, research interest in the 3D printing of metal patterns on plastic parts has grown exponentially, due to its high potential in the manufacturing of next-generation electronics. But ...

Perhaps one of the oldest dreams of a science-fiction future is the ability to create something where once there was nothing. If we could create solid, stable objects out of thin air, the idea of ...

There are so many reasons to love stereolithography (SLA). This 3D printing process keeps improving every decade, expanding its capabilities and applications with each iteration. Although its roots ...

Culver City, Calif.-based Azure Printed Homes Inc. will use additive manufacturing and recycled plastic to create tiny houses, backyard studios, accessory dwelling units (ADUs) — and maybe one day ...

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 ...
