"Supernatural Strength: 3D-Printed Titanium Breakthrough"

Researchers at RMIT University have developed a 3D printed titanium lattice structure with exceptional strength, surpassing the strength-to-weight ratio of natural or manufactured materials. The lattice structure, created using a common titanium alloy, distributes stress evenly, making it 50% stronger than the next strongest alloy of similar density used in aerospace applications. The design, produced using metal 3D printing, shows promise for applications in medical implants, aircraft, and rocket parts, and could potentially withstand temperatures up to 600°C. While the technology for producing this material is not yet widely available, the team is open to collaborations for exploring its various potential applications.
