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,...

Biodegradable films have been introduced in the packaging industry recently. Most products are boxes, bottles and bags. The printability of biodegradable film has not been fully investigated. This study tested the printability on clear and white Polylactic acid (PLA) films, and compared the print qualities to common packaging films like Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Wate...

the aims of this study were to determine hippuric acid and toluene in urine samples, airborne toluene levels, health effects, and to describe any correlation between specimen samples. seventy-five printing workers exposed to toluene at work (exposed group), and 60 nonexposed people (control group) were studied. study participants were selected from same factories in the different positions. uri...

Controlling the occurrence of defects is a major challenge for manufacturing organizations that are seeking to enhance their competitive position in today’s global market. This paper considers the process of screen-printing T-shirts using hydraulic and pneumatic printing machines. Several defects in the output of this printing process have been observed, especially with multi colors printing as...

printing and packaging industries make three phases of solid, liquid and gaseous contaminants which can cause very dangerous problems. the presence of alcohols, inks, and cleaners can result in massive range of industrial pollutants. always respiratory problems, fatigue, dizziness, weakness, abnormal behavior, memory impairment, insomnia, loss of appetite, and impaired vision and hearing and ca...

Perovskite solar cells have potential to deliver terawatt-scale power via low-cost manufacturing. However, scaling is limited by slow, high-temperature annealing of the inorganic transport layers and lack reliable, large-area methods for depositing thin (< 30 nm) charge (CTLs). We present a method ultrathin NiOx hole (HTLs) pairing high-speed (60 m/min) flexographic printing with rapidly anneal...

The advent of 3D printers has been embraced globally within few years of its emergence. The surge in the acceptability of rapid manufacturing RM technology can be attributed to the depletion and cost of natural resources, waste reduction and sustainability criterion of manufactured parts. This rapidly evolving 3D printing technologies is predicted to grow exponentially especially for the manufa...
