3D Printed Silicone Lattice Mixes Antifungal Resistance with Vibration Isolation

Researchers have developed a 3D printed silicone rubber lattice that combines antifungal properties with vibration isolation capabilities for construction applications. The material resists fungal growth while absorbing vibration and repetitive stress, offering potential benefits for equipment mounting and structural isolation in building systems.

Researchers from Jiangnan University, a research university in Wuxi, China, and Jiangda Vibration Isolator Co., Ltd., a vibration-control manufacturer based in the same city, have developed a 3D printed silicone rubber lattice designed to resist fungal growth while absorbing vibration and repeated…
