Multiscale lithographic feedstock rheology: MarsRecent Research Landscape

Uncontrolled particle geometry in additive manufacturing and drug delivery leads to inconsistent release kinetics and structural failure. These innovations utilize fluid shear and turbulent flow dynamics to precisely control the morphology of polymer capsules and biological payloads.

What technical problems is Mars addressing in Multiscale lithographic feedstock rheology?

Material composition nonhomogeneity

(8)evidences

Inherent limitations in shaping brittle or high-value materials prevent the realization of complex geometries. Overcoming these constraints allows for the production of intricate components without structural defects or material waste.

Interfacial adhesion failure

(8)evidences

Non-uniform material distribution and unpredictable fluid behavior during high-speed additive processes. Resolving these instabilities ensures structural integrity and dimensional accuracy in complex geometries.
