Biodegradable soft robots lay a way to eco-friendly electronics and Additive technologies

Having mixed gelatin and sugar, researchers created biodegradable ink, with help which they print soft robots in the 3D. Gel can be reused for production of other robots and objects to five times before it will lose the mechanical properties then it decays, without leaving traces. This achievement about which it is reported in the Science Robotics magazine, lays a steady way forward for the 3D areas Additive technologies and electronic engineers who traditionally depend on plastic on the basis of oil. While robots are traditionally made from metals and firm plastic, grows...
