RC 2 - Materials
How can we create the materials that can enable control over advanced functionality or release, that are 3D Printable?
Leading Team: George Malliaras (Lead) and Cameron Alexander (Co-Lead)
AIM: Formulating 3D printable materials ready for advanced function. We will systematically develop libraries of functional molecular, macromolecular and hybrid materials and resins, thereby greatly extending the portfolio and choice of materials; this will transform the function of devices in our target sectors and prepare the way for dial up of performance. Targeting the functions outlined in Product, we will focus on the development of printable materials that go beyond simple structural performance and seek out those that respond to stimuli or the environment and enable highly tailorable spatiotemporal control.
