Antibacterial 3D Printing Filament for Medical Devices
Losing a limb is traumatic enough, but adjusting to a prosthetic device can be a brand new challenge in itself. Not only is the...
New coatings make natural fabrics waterproof
Fabrics that resist water are essential for everything from rainwear to military tents, but conventional water-repellent coatings have been shown to persist in the...
Glass That’s Handled Like a Polymer
For all its superb optical properties, fused silica glass is too brittle to withstand the computer-controlled machining processes used in today's industries. Now, researchers...

4D printing of elastomer-derived ceramic structures
Four-dimensional (4D) printing involves conventional 3D printing followed by a shape-morphing step. It enables more complex shapes to be created than is possible with...
Researchers achieve unprecedented polymer grid control
Synthetic polymers are ubiquitous -- nylon and polyester, Teflon and epoxy, to name just a few. All are made up of long, linear structures...
Electron sandwich doubles thermoelectric performance
Researchers more than doubled the ability of a material to convert heat into electricity, which could help reduce the amount of wasted heat and...
Paired-up electrons can be manipulated in semiconductors
The way that electrons paired as composite particles or arranged in lines interact with each other within a semiconductor provides new design opportunities for...
