Inkjet Printed Nanothermite

The technology and personnel of Next Offset Solutions was highlighted in a recent video describing exciting new technologies in the fields of energetic material and additive manufacturing. Find out more here. This video is the product of Purdue University.

Purdue University hosts world class research in Energetic Materials (explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics) as well as Additive Manufacturing (inkjet printing and 3D printing). Allison Murray's project combines the two. Inert suspensions of aluminum and copper can be simultaneously mixed and deposited through a custom-built inkjet printer, allowing nanothermite to be "printed" with high levels of precision and safety.
