3D printing with cellulose
For centuries, cellulose has formed the basis of the world’s most abundantly printed-on material: paper. Now, thanks to new research at MIT, it may also become an abundant material to print with — potentially providing a renewable, biodegradable alternative to the polymers currently used in3Dprinting materials.“Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer in the world,” says MIT postdoc Sebastian Pattinson, lead author o...
