3D Printing Liquid Metals

Researchers at North Carolina State University have come up with a way to 3D print liquid metals and keep their new form. A syringe pushes out the metals, liquid at room temperature, and the metals are covered in an oxide film to keep their shape.

This new technology allows for more flexible and durable metallic structures (e.g. wires).
