New 3D printing technique using silicone paste expands tech applications - Design Engineering

Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a new 3D printing technique that produces flexible and porous silicone rubber structures. The team used the principles behind the formation of sand castles built from wet sand and was able to come up with a technique that combines water with solid and liquid forms of silicone into a pasty ink that can be fed through a 3D printer.
