Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose is that innovative structural/functional materials are developed by creating and developing novel porous metals via 3D printer and mathematical geometry. The contents are as follows; (1) Fabrication of gyroid-type porous structure (2) Fabrication of hierarchical porous structure available for mass production (3) Composite of nanoporous metal and UV curable resin using non-special 3D printer (4) Metal plating of 3D objects made from ABS resin by non-special 3D printer (5) Composite of nanoporous metal and cellulose nanofibers. From this study, we noticed that that input costs (hardware, feedstock, maintenance) of metal additive manufacture (AM) are too high and significantly limit the current metal AM market to academic researchers. We keep challenging how novel and solid hierarchical porous structures can be fabricated using 3D printer in inexpensive manner for various applications.
