Photosensitisation of inkjet printed graphene with stable all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (2022)
Journal Article
Austin, J. S., Cottam, N. D., Zhang, C., Wang, F., Gosling, J. H., Nelson-Dummet, O., …Turyanska, L. (2023). Photosensitisation of inkjet printed graphene with stable all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals. Nanoscale, 15(5), 2134–2142. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2nr06429d

All-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with enhanced environmental stability are of particular interest for optoelectronic applications. Here we report on the formulation of CsPbX3 (X is Br or I) inks for inkjet deposition and utilise these NCs...

Antimicrobial ‘inks’ for 3D printing: block copolymer-silver nanoparticle composites synthesised using supercritical CO2 (2022)
Journal Article
Larder, R. R., Krumins, E., Jacob, P. L., Kortsen, K., Cavanagh, R., Jiang, L., …Howdle, S. M. (2022). Antimicrobial ‘inks’ for 3D printing: block copolymer-silver nanoparticle composites synthesised using supercritical CO2. Polymer Chemistry, 13(25), 3768-3779. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2py00398h

Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are widely exploited for their effective antimicrobial activity against a range of pathogens. Their high efficacy in this regard has seen the global demand for AgNP in consumer products steadily increase in recent years, n...

Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations (2022)
Journal Article
Groth, J., Magnini, M., Tuck, C., & Clare, A. (2022). Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations. Additive Manufacturing, 55, Article 102739. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2022.102739

Current biomimetic designs do not incorporate naturally occurring variance. Instead, the same unit cell is repeatedly copied and pasted to create a pattern. Existing stochastic designs use the same randomness for all parameters. However, nature teach... Read More about Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations.

3D reactive inkjet printing of bisphenol A-polycarbonate (2022)
Journal Article
Qian, Q., Kamps, J. H., Price, B., Gu, H., Wildman, R., Hague, R., …Tuck, C. (2022). 3D reactive inkjet printing of bisphenol A-polycarbonate. Additive Manufacturing, 54, Article 102745. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2022.102745

Additive Manufacturing (AM) techniques have gained extensive attention recently as they are able to directly produce 3D parts utilising a layer-by-layer manner. Inkjet printing is one such technique which can produce micron-scale features but is gene... Read More about 3D reactive inkjet printing of bisphenol A-polycarbonate.

Reactive Jetting of High Viscosity Nanocomposites for Dielectric Elastomer Actuation (2022)
Journal Article
Malas, A., Saleh, E., Giménez‐López, M. D. C., Rance, G. A., Helps, T., Taghavi, M., …Goodridge, R. D. (2022). Reactive Jetting of High Viscosity Nanocomposites for Dielectric Elastomer Actuation. Advanced Materials Technologies, 7(6), Article 2101111. https://doi.org/10.1002/admt.202101111

The layer-by-layer nature of additive manufacturing is well matched to the layer construction of stacked dielectric actuators, with inkjet printing offering a unique opportunity due to its droplet-on-demand capability, suitable for multi-material pro...
