Article Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate the feasibility of rapid volumetric additive manufacturing in the solid state. This additive manufacturing technology is particularly useful in outer space missions (microgravity) and/or for harsh environment (e.g., on ships and vehicles during maneuvering, or on airplanes during flight). A special thermal gel is applied here to demonstrate the concept, that is, ultraviolet crosslinking in the solid state. The produced hydrogels are characterized and the water-content-dependent heating/cooling/water-responsive shape memory effect is revealed. Here, the shape memory feature is required to eliminate the deformation induced in the process of removing the uncrosslinked part from the crosslinked part in the last step of this additive manufacturing process.

3D printing, as a versatile additive manufacturing technique, offers high design flexibility, rapid prototyping, minimal material waste, and the capability to fabricate complex, customized geometries. These attributes make it particularly well-suited for low-temperature hydrogen electrochemical conversion devices-specifically, proton exchange membrane fuel cells, proton exchange membrane electrolyzer cells, anion exchange membrane electrolyzer cells, and alkaline electrolyzers-which demand finely structured components such as catalyst layers, gas diffusion layers, electrodes, porous transport layers, and bipolar plates. This review provides a focused and critical summary of the current progress in applying 3D printing technologies to these key components.

Achieving both high sensitivity and a wide detection range in flexible pressure sensors poses a challenge due to their inherent trade-off. Although porous structures offer promising solutions, conventional methods (templating, foaming, and freeze-drying) fail to precisely control cavity dimensions, spatial arrangement, and 3D morphology, which are crucial for sensing performance. Here, we propose a scalable fabrication strategy that integrates triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) geometries─precisely engineered via FDM 3D printing─with ultrasonic impregnation of carbon black (CB) into TPU scaffolds.

This review critically examines the rapidly advancing field of cellulosic natural fibre-reinforced polymer (NFRP) composites, with a particular emphasis on material innovation aligned with sustainability and environmental responsibility. The review presents a systematic analysis of recent literature evaluating the mechanical, thermal, water absorption, wear, and machining characteristics of NFRP composites, as well as the influence of advanced processing approaches such as additive manufacturing. Special attention is given to the structure-property relationships and hybridisation strategies employed to address limitations such as relatively lower mechanical performance and durability compared to synthetic fibre composites.

Electrolytes are important components in lithium-ion batteries. However, battery degradation due to irreversible electrochemical reactions in the electrolyte can consume electrolyte molecules and severely reduce its effective operation lifetime. It is hence important to study the electrochemical reaction pathways in the battery electrolyte to further improve lithium-ion battery reliability.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the dimensional and positional deviations of additively manufactured removable dies fabricated using two bio-based resins and one conventional dental cast resin, while also evaluating these outcomes over a 4-week period.
Materials And Methods: A right mandibular first molar preparation on a typodont was scanned to digitally design removable dies and hollow partial arch casts. Based on a priori power analysis, a total of 30 dies (n = 10) and three hollow casts (n = 1) were fabricated using additive manufacturing (AM) from three different dental cast resins: DentaMODEL (DM), FotoDent bio-based model (CB), and soy-based resin (SB).
