The team was initially inspired by the mantis shrimp, which conquers its prey with a "dactyl club" appendage that grows tougher on impact through twisting cracks that dissipate energy and prevent the ...

Purdue University researchers have 3D-printed cement paste, a key ingredient of the concrete and mortar used to build various elements of infrastructure, that gets tougher under pressure like the ...

Their latest invention is a 3D-printed plate that uses electrical voltage to manipulate liquid droplets, according to a paper published as part of the 2023 Designing Interactive Systems Conference.

Move your 3D models into a high throughput environment with new Matrigel matrix-3D plates. A convenient and consistent pre-coated plate option that boosts productivity in homogenous assays. Reduces ...

We talk to the research team from Purdue University who've combined 3D printing and inspiration from the natural world to give cement some very new behaviours.

We’re accustomed to covering the use of 3D printing in casting, usually as a lost-PLA former in metal casting. That’s not the only use of the technique though, and perhaps one of the si… ...

In April 2023, Israel's Steakholder Foods paired up with Singapore-based Umami Meats to create the world's first 3D-printed cultivated whole cut of grouper fish, pictured here.

3D printed cement that mimics the shells of beetles by getting tougher under pressure could lead to the development of more resilient building structures, optimised to withstand natural disasters. The ...
