3D Printed Titanium Structure Shows Supernatural Strength
18th July 2025
RMIT University researchers created the new metamaterial – a term used to describe an artificial material with unique properties not observed in nature – from common titanium alloy.
But it’s the material’s unique lattice structure design, recently revealed in the Advanced Materials journal, that makes it anything but common: tests show it’s 50% stronger than the next strongest alloy of similar density used in aerospace applications.
