ABSTRACT
Three-dimensional (3D) printing is one of the most interesting subjects in recent years due to its capability to construct multifunctional devices. Nanomaterials are materials having at least one dimension in the range of 1–100 nm. Nanomaterial properties depend on their size. Hence, by tailoring their size, various characteristics can be observed. Fabricating nanomaterials with 3D printing methods can enhance mechanical, optical, electrical, biological, and thermal properties which could not be gained by conventional fabrication methods. Nanofibers, nanoparticles, nanosheets, nanocrystals, and nanopatterning are potential material forms that can be fabricated by 3D printing. These materials have a vital role in electronics, customization of biomedical devices, and bioelectronics. The aim of this chapter is to highlight different nanomaterials fabricated by 3D printing and discuss their application. Finally, we discuss possible limitations and their solution and provide a future perspective in this field.
