Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.
