Materials Made to Order
For a desired property, software proposes the material and the recipe, and automated labs or printers make it.
Open in the interactive tree →This joins reliable prediction of properties and synthesis routes with automated manufacturing. Development cycles for new batteries, catalysts or alloys would shrink from decades to months.
What it brings
- Faster development of batteries, solar materials and catalysts
- Alloys and composites tailored to a task
- Less trial and error and fewer scarce raw materials
