\"Scientists from the Complex Materials Group at ETH Zürich, Switzerland, have 3D printed glass objects using a specialized resin and Digital Light Processing (DLP).\
\
As stated in the study published in a recent issue of Natural Materials, this method leverages the photopolymerization-induced phase separation of hybrid resins containing plastic and organic molecules. This creates complex glass parts with high spatial resolutions and multi-oxide chemical compositions.\
\
"The few enticing examples of 3D printed glasses are limited in their chemical compositions and suffer from the low resolution achievable.\"\
