Artist’s rendering of a hypersonic aircraft. Photo credit: Hermeus High-efficiency 3D-printed catalytic converters could help solve the overheating problem in hypersonic aircraft and offer a revolutionary solution to thermal management in countless industries. The highly versatile catalysts, developed by researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, are inexpensive to manufacture and easy to scale up. The team’s lab demonstrations show that the 3D-printed catalysts could potentially be used to power hypersonic flight…
