Using vat photopolymerization, they printed 16-nozzle arrays with intricate internal microchannels in just a few hours. The devices generate uniform multilayered droplets suitable for time-release drug delivery capsules, biosensors, and self-healing materials. Key findings include that middle-layer viscosity is critical for droplet stability, and that flow rates and voltages can be tuned to control layer thickness for targeted drug release timing. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
