A new 3D printing technology can print electronics in skin to provide chemical sensors for soldiers in combat zones and new treatments for skin disorders. The 3D-printing technique utilizes a specialized ink made of silver flakes, which can cure and conduct at room temperature, as conventional 3D-printing inks require temperatures up to 100ËšC, which is inappropriate for printing on human skin. This method can have applications for soldiers in war zones, such as temporary chemical sensors or solar cells to charge essential electronics.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
