Concept of chocolate-based ink 3D printing (Ci3DP) involves liquid chocolate products mixed with edible additives and printed by a direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printer at room temperature. The formulated inks allowed easy extrusion through the syringes and nozzles and form self-supporting layers after extrusion to maintain the printed structures.

3D Printed Chocolate Without Temp. Control

Researchers have pioneered a novel approach to 3D print chocolate-based products at room temperature by cold extrusion.

This 3D-printed conductive buckyball can work as an electric switch.

More Stretchable 3D Printing Materials

Researchers have developed a family of highly stretchable and UV curable elastomers that can be stretched up to 1,100 percent, and are suitable for UV curing-based 3D printing techniques.
