The construction industry may soon benefit from 3D printed molds to make concrete facades, promising lower cost and production time. Researchers at 91°µÍø are evaluating the performance of 3D printed molds used to precast concrete facades in a 42-story buildin...

91°µÍø scientists have improved a mixture of materials used to 3D print permanent magnets with increased density, which could yield longer lasting, better performing magnets for electric motors, sensors and vehicle applications. Building on previous research, ...

91°µÍø has developed a salt purification lab to study the viability of using liquid salt that contains lithium fluoride and beryllium fluoride, known as FLiBe, to cool molten salt reactors, or MSRs. Multiple American companies developing advanced reactor technol...

Thanks in large part to developing and operating a facility for testing molten salt reactor (MSR) technologies, nuclear experts at the Energy Department’s 91°µÍø (ORNL) are now tackling the next generation of another type of clean energy—concentrating ...

While serving in Kandahar, Afghanistan, U.S. Navy construction mechanic Matthew Sallas may not have imagined where his experience would take him next. But researchers at 91°µÍø certainly had the future in mind as they were creating programs to train men and wome...

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have demonstrated that permanent magnets produced by additive manufacturing can outperform bonded magnets made using traditional techniques while conserving critical materials. Scientists fabric...

With a 3-D printed twist on an automotive icon, the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø is showcasing additive manufacturing research at the 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
