Can glass replace bone? Scientists 3D print bio-glass that mimics skeletal strength
No one thinks of glass as a replacement for bone. But researchers in China have developed a 3D printable bio-active glass ...
You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many ...
A 3D printable bio-glass bone substitute supports long-term bone cell growth, outperforming regular glass and commercial ...
In a study published in Optical Materials Express, researchers have developed a new method for programming a commercially available 3D printer for glass extrusion. The development has allowed them to ...

Scientists 3D print bio-glass with skeletal strength
Researchers in China have developed a 3D printable bio-active glass that edges closer to bone resilience. In animal tests, it supported bone cell growth longer than plain glass and nearly matched a ...
Of all the materials that can be 3D-printed, glass is still one of the most challenging to work with. Scientists at the ETH Zurich research center are working on changing that, though, with a new and ...
While the thought of a machine that can squirt out endless ropes of molten glass is a bit frightening, the folks at MIT have just about perfected the process. In a paper published in 3D Printing and ...
Glass is increasingly being used in fiber optics, consumer electronics and microfluidics for “lab-on-a-chip” devices. Unfortunately, traditional glassmaking can be costly and slow, and 3D-printed ...
Scientists have created the world’s smallest wine glass, narrower than a human hair. Made out of actual glass, the model is a test run of a new 3D-printing process that could help make nanoscale glass ...
As 3D printing technology evolves, some people are using it to make things more practical.One of the newer creations is 3D-printed glasses. Inside Nebraska Furniture Mart's new optical center is the ...
Researchers created a 3D-printable bioactive glass that supports bone growth in rabbits, offering a low-cost, effective ...
