3D-Printed Nozzles Make Uniform Nanofibers and Meshes

Engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have used 3D printing to build a nozzle that is used to create high-quality, low-cost nanofiber meshes. Such meshes have a wide range of potential applications, including tissue engineering, water filtration, solar cells, and even body armor. But their commercialization has been hampered by inefficient manufacturing techniques.
