Composite-based additive manufacturing appears to be on the verge of breaking through as a ‘mainstream’ method of production, according to a new report on disruptive 3D printing technologies. Current 3D printing simply cannot deliver the level of precision and material strength required for these applications.

When it comes to history and awareness, polymer additive manufacturing leads the 3D printing industry. The first type of 3D printing to be invented in the 1980s was stereolithography, while thermoplastic filament extrusion holds the most public recognition amongst additive technologies. billion in 2033.

“To bring greater sensitivity and versatility we have developed new composite films with surprising and very useful electrical properties,” says Xinlin Li of the Qingdao University team. The composite consists of small amounts of graphitic carbon nitride added to polydimethylsiloxane.
