For filament printing or the 3D printing of pasty materials, scientists are turning to biopolymers that, in combination with other materials, enable the additive construction of molded and designed parts.<\/p>\n

Fungi as a energy storage<\/h3>\n

In addition to corn starch for the production of polylactic acid (PLA) or pectin from citrus fruit peels, fungal mycelium is also increasingly becoming a focus of researchers. The mycelium of the mold Aspergillus niger, which is a byproduct of many biotechnological processes, contains up to 25 percent chitin. Chitin is a biopolymer found particularly in the shells of insects and crab shells.<\/p>\n

In this lecture, Prof. Dr. Sascha Peters will present current projects for the development of 3D printing with fungal mycelium. He will be using the principle of a 3D-printed mushroom battery, currently being developed at Empa in Switzerland by Gustav Nystr\u00f6m and Carolina Reyes.<\/p>\n

In the “Mycoustics” project, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMFTR), Fraunhofer IWU is currently developing a process chain for the additive manufacturing of a loudspeaker cabinet with living mushroom mycelium. In a single process step, both sound-reflecting and sound-absorbing surfaces are to be created, thus influencing the sound experience.<\/p>\n
