The fundamental essence of material design towards creating functional materials lies in bringing together the competing aspects of a large specific surface area and rapid transport pathways. The generation of structural hierarchy on distinct and well-defined length scales has successfully solved many problems in porous materials. Important applications of these hierarchical materials in the fields of catalysis and electrochemistry are briefly discussed. This review summarizes the recent advances in the strategies to create a hierarchical bicontinuous morphology in porous metals, focusing mainly on the hierarchical architectures in nanoporous gold. Starting from the traditional dealloying method and subsequently moving to other non-traditional top-down and bottom-up manufacturing processes including templating, 3D printing, and electrodeposition, this review will thoroughly examine the chemistry of creating hierarchical nanoporous gold and other coinage metals. Finally, we conclude with a discussion about the future opportunities for the advancement in the methodologies to create bimodal structures with enhanced sensitivity.

The concept of ecology, historically rooted in the economy of nature, currently needs to evolve to encompass the intricate web of interactions among humans and various organisms in the environment, which are influenced by anthropogenic forces. In this review, the definition of ecology has been adapted to address the dynamic interplay of energy, resources, and information shaping both natural and artificial ecosystems. Previously, 3D (and 4D) printing technologies have been presented as potential tools within this ecological framework, promising a new economy for nature. However, despite the considerable scientific discourse surrounding both ecology and 3D printing, there remains a significant gap in research exploring the interplay between these directions. Therefore, a holistic review of incorporating ecological principles into 3D printing practices is presented, emphasizing environmental sustainability, resource efficiency, and innovation. Furthermore, the ‘unecological’ aspects of 3D printing, disadvantages related to legal aspects, intellectual property, and legislation, as well as societal impacts, are underlined. These presented ideas collectively suggest a roadmap for future research and practice. This review calls for a more comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted impacts of 3D printing and the development of responsible practices aligned with ecological goals.

“…Additive manufacturing (AM), more commonly known as three-dimensional (3D) printing, has become an incredibly popular manufacturing process over the past couple of decades. It is regarded as a new manufacturing frontier in various fields, including health care, manufacturing and aerospace (Banerjee, 2015; Berman, 2012; Kahlenborn and Bovenschulte, 2018; Ruth, 2016). AM technologies provide a time-efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional manufacturing processes, such as casting, machining and joining (Guo and Leu, 2013; Huang et al , 2015).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to design and develop an environmentally controlled enclosure for commercial three-dimensional (3D) printers. Design/methodology/approach Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and experimental testing investigated various designs for environmentally controlled enclosures. CFD simulations provided the necessary information to select the optimal and feasible design, whereas experimental testing validated the CFD simulation results. An environmentally controlled environment allowed test samples to be printed at several relative humidity (RH) settings (20% RH, 50% RH and 80% RH). The test samples were characterized at both the macro and micro scales. The macroscale characterization was conducted using the static tensile testing procedure, while the microscale polymer material properties were determined using atomic force microscopy. Findings An environmentally controlled enclosure was designed and built to produce airflow in the print region with an average RH uniformity of over 0.70. Three batches of ASTM D638 standard test samples were printed at 20% RH (low RH), 50% RH (mid RH) and 80% RH (high RH). Macroscale characterization showed that the samples printed at lower humidity had statistically significantly higher tangent modulus, ultimate tensile strength and rupture strength. atomic force microscopy studies have also verified these results at the microscale and nanoscale. These studies also showed that a high humidity environment interacts with melted polylactic acid, causing additional surface roughness that reduces the strength of 3D-printed parts. Originality/value There is a need for stronger and higher-quality 3D-printed parts in the additive manufacturing (AM) market. This study fulfills that need by designing and developing an environmentally controlled add-on enclosure for the AM market.
