Rice University researchers develop 3D printed wood

Researchers at Rice University have unlocked the potential to use 3D printing to make sustainable wood structures from additive-free, water-based ink made of lignin and cellulose, the fundamental building blocks of wood. The ink can be used to produce architecturally intricate wood structures via a 3D printing technique known as direct ink writing.
