Nanomaterials In 3D Printing

Nanomaterials Begin to Blur the Lines Between Industrial and Hobbyist 3D Printing

The enabling of 3D printed electronics through nanomaterials is changing 3D printing and electronics

IEEE Spectrum | July 26, 2016

It’s become increasingly clear over the last couple of years that the world of 3D printing is experiencing a paradigm shift. While it has long been the domain of design engineers who have used it to quickly produce prototypes from computer-aided design specifications, there is a movement for change in the market across two fronts: the hobbyist or home users market continues to expand; and, industry is edging closer to using 3D printing for actual commercial products as opposed to merely prototypes.
