Reply to comment by Shelfrock77 in Engineers designed a new nanoscale 3D printing material that can be printed at a speed of 100 mm/s by Shelfrock77

would this be capable of printing a highly ductile translucent polymer?

I'm also interested in this notion. 🤓🤙🏼

Cool!

what project are you working on where you'd use this?

Not to be that guy, but it's my understanding that "ductility" is not the term for polymers, related to the difference between certain metallic crystal structures allowing plastic deformation (ductile) and the molecular breakage of thermoset polymers (i.e. not ductile), correct?
