Polymer Discovery Gives 3D Printed Sand Super Strength

Researchers have designed a novel polymer to bind and strengthen silica sand for binder jet additive manufacturing, a 3D-printing method used by industries for prototyping and part production.

New Method Resolves Materials Joining in Solid-State Batteries

Scientists have developed a scalable, low-cost method to improve the joining of materials in solid-state batteries, resolving one of the big challenges in the commercial development of safe, long-lived energy storage systems.

High Power Wireless Vehicle Charging Technology

The US Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory has licensed its wireless charging technology for electric vehicles to Brooklyn-based HEVO. The system could one day enable electric vehicles to be charged as they are driven at highway speeds.

'Founding Father' of Lithium Ion Batteries Helps Solve 40 Year Problem

In the late 1970s, M. Stanley Whittingham was the first to describe the concept of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, an achievement for which he would share the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Yet even he couldn't have anticipated the complex materials science challenges that would arise as these batteries came to power the world's portable electronics.

Orbital Composites

Orbital Composites is a 3D printing company focussing on composite material.

Massivit 3D

Massivit 3D is an Israeli 3D Printing company that manufactures and sells large-format thermoset deposition printers and materials. IDTechEx spoke with Ido Eylon, VP of Global Sales and Marketing at Massivit 3D.

Massivit 3D

Massivit 3D is a 3D Printing company that formed in 2013 and specialises in large volume printers. In April 2021, they launched a new product called Massivit 3D 5000.

Thin Film Electronics ASA

New Class of Cobalt-Free Cathodes for Next-Gen Lithium-Ion Batteries

Researchers have developed a new family of cathodes with the potential to replace the costly cobalt-based cathodes typically found in today's lithium-ion batteries that power electric vehicles and consumer electronics.

A Defect-resistant Superalloy for 3D Printing

In recent years, it has become possible to use laser beams and electron beams to "print" engineering objects that have complex shapes that could not be achieved by conventional manufacturing routes. The additive manufacturing process, known widely as 3D printing, for metallic materials involves melting and fusing fine-scale powder particles — each about ten times finer than a grain of local beach sand — in sub-millimeter-scale "pools" created by focusing a laser or electron beam on the material.
