The Rheology of Dense Colloidal Pastes Used in 3D-Printing

On the Rheology of Dense Pastes of Soft Particles

The dynamics of polymer bridge formation and disruption and its effect on the bulk rheology of suspensions.

Bridge-flocculated colloidal gels are used in many important processes and products such as gel casting for advanced ceramics, precursor inks for 3D printing, and waste treatment strategies. An important aspect of polymer bridged gels that makes them excellent candidates for these applications is the precise control it affords for control of rheological properties. Recent studies have shown tha...

A Review on the Application of 3D Printing Technology in Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is considered as one of the main causes of cancer death in women. Early diagnosis and treatment, especially by modern technologies play major roles in management of breast cancer. Radiation therapy is known as one of the main treatment options for breast cancer. Nowadays, 3D printing technology is also used to rapidly construct objects with high quality. Many studies have shown th...

Bioprinting in Vascularization Strategies

Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has revolutionized tissue engineering field because of its excellent potential of accurately positioning cell-laden constructs. One of the main challenges in the formation of functional engineered tissues is the lack of an efficient and extensive network of microvessels to support cell viability. By printing vascular cells and appropriate biomaterials,...

Investigation of the effective factors on manufacturing calcium phosphates prototypes using 3D printing

Calcium phosphate ceramics has been widely used in the present due to their chemical similarity to bone and good biocompatibility in the physiological environmental and a compatibility with synthetic and natural polymers Recent advancements in additive manufacturing have enabled the fabrication of 3D prototypes with controlled architecture resembling the natural bone.
