Laser Treatment Reduces Need for Hazardous Chemicals in Coatings Prep
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Sept. 29, 2021 — Although highly regulated, the chemical pre-treatment processes used to prepare U.S. Department of Defense materials for protective coatings involve hazardous compounds that can harm one’s health and the environment. A laser-interference structuring (LIS) system developed by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) could make protective coating application safer and more sustainable, by substantially lessening the need for these hazardous
Two-Photon Polymerization: Additive Manufacturing From the Inside Out
