Estimating the term…
Material processing composites, devices, methods of use, and methods of manufacturing using composites having three-dimensional interpenetrating channels separated by porous walls. Such composites include composites having a first flow channel and a second flow channel defined and separated by porous (e.g., nanoporous) walls, wherein the first flow channel and the second flow channels have a three-dimensional interpenetrating structure. The first flow channel and the second flow channel may have a triply periodic minimal surface structure, such as a gyroid or Schwartz surface structure. In some embodiments, the composite is configured for use in hemofiltration, molecular filtration, gas purification, energy storage, or chemical conversion.
A material processing composite comprising a first flow channel and a second flow channel defined and separated by porous walls, wherein the first flow channel and the second flow channels have a three-dimensional interpenetrating structure.
A filtration device for filtering a mixture comprising a component material, the device comprising:
A method for making a material processing composite having a three-dimensional interpenetrating structure including a first flow channel and a second flow channel defined and separated by porous walls, the method comprising forming the porous walls by an additive printing process using a substrate ink.
