3D printing superstrong structural component from cellulose using silicate as binder
This project intends to use Canada’s rich forest fiber resources for the development of strong structural products, and improve the performance of cellulose-based products. Such high-performance cellulose-based products will be realized by binding 3D printed cellulose using the partner organization (National Silicates)’s sodium/potassium silicates products. The partner will also benefit significantly from this project as it is actively seeking for expanding the applications of silicates in 3D printing. Such applications can be potentially expanded to housing and other structural applications.
