With the rapid development of 3D printing technology, photopolymers have become important materials for manufacturing complex structures. However, traditional photopolymers (such as acrylates) form irreversible C-C bond networks after curing, making them difficult to recycle and leading to material waste and environmental pollution. In a study published in 2025 in Science by Professor Tao Xie … Read more
As semiconductor devices increasingly require more compact and efficient characteristics, this leads to an increase in heat generation, necessitating more effective cooling solutions. Conventional cooling methods such as jet impingement and spray cooling have complex operational issues, while microchannel heat exchangers effectively increase the heat transfer surface area but resulted in higher pressure losses and … Read more

Friends, this is incredible! Have you heard that “calligraphy” and “3D printing,” two seemingly incompatible things, have been boldly combined? I was shocked and thought this artistic transformation was quite audacious! However, upon further reflection, it is indeed a unique form of innovation. Aren’t old arts supposed to keep up with the times to remain … Read more
1. Research Background and Objectives Current Status and Challenges Traditional polymer surface selective metallization methods are costly, complex, and often use toxic chemicals (such as chromic acid), which are harmful to the environment and health. Existing technologies (such as laser direct writing and conductive inkjet printing) require customized equipment or special materials, limiting rapid prototyping … Read more
According to foreign media Tom’s Hardware, researchers at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory are demonstrating that 3D printing technology is still full of innovative potential — using glass as a raw material for 3D printing. Traditionally, manufacturing glass requires extremely high temperatures, not only for shaping but also for annealing the finished product. One major challenge is … Read more
Heat exchangers are indispensable in various applications. Generally, heat exchangers are used to transfer heat between fluids (usually moving fluids) to eliminate excess heat generated by components during operation. Particularly in aerospace applications, most of the cooling for engines is provided by air-oil heat exchangers located between the engine and the cabin, which can cool … Read more
