Supercooled water enables 3D printing of ice
Physicists from the University of Amsterdam have developed a method to print three-dimensional structures in ice. The researchers show how small pillars can be printed at an angle, making it possible to print arbitrary profiles ...
Scientists Can Now 3D-Print Ice Without Extra Support
Physicists at the University of Amsterdam have developed a new way to print three-dimensional structures using water and ice. Their method can produce tiny ice pillars at sharp angles, allowing them to create complicated shapes without needing extra material to support the structures from underneath. The key to this unusual printing process is evaporative cooling. […]

Scientists at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands have developed a method that allows three-dimensional ice structures to be printed from "supercooled" water. The technique takes advantage of evaporation cooling in a vacuum chamber and allows creating from small Christmas trees to tilted shapes without the need for support structures.
