The researchers used different inks to result in different widths of printed strands and successfully completed direct writing with high-resolution cellulose structures. 3D printing or additive ...
Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin form structures called microfibrils, which are organized into macrofibrils that mediate structural stability in the plant cell wall.
Although the components of wood – cellulose and lignin – are exceedingly cheap and plentiful, combining these into a wood-like structure is ... have come closest to 3D printing literal wood ...
