A new era of 3D-printing “microfactories” is helping to turn waste plastics into “highly competitive” products fit for use in ...

An international collaboration headed by researchers in the Department of Physics has shown that additive manufacturing offers a realistic way to build large-scale plastic scintillator detectors for ...

It wasn’t long ago that 3D printing felt like a niche tool—ideal for hobbyists, engineers tinkering with plastic prototypes, ...

"If this [waste-made plastic] can now be fed into a 3D printer, can you actually print a whole range of products?" she said. One such product already made are "clamps" — or blocks — used in ...
