Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to, in particular to, a 3D coaxially printed gelatin composite hydrogel ink and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Tissue engineering is the development of tissue and organ substitutes to repair, improve and reconstruct injured tissues and organs, with the ultimate goal of replacing organ transplantation. In recent years, bioprinting technology has become a hot research direction in tissue engineering. It can effectively encapsulate cells in bio-inks, effectively solving the problems of uneven cell distribution and cell loss in the past printing process. Among them, extrusion bioprinting is a relatively simple technology. It is expected to print functional three-dimensional biological structures and tissue models through precise 3D control of various components (such as cells, support media, etc.). In order to produce anisotropic structures that simulate the biological functions of anisotropic tissues, the methods for manufacturing tissue engineering scaffolds include: inducing the orientation of polymer chains or hydrogel chains using electric / magnetic fields, ion flow direction and diffusion, stretching, biological templates, and drying under restricted conditions. These resulting scaffolds have oriented patterns that enable them to mimic the mechanical properties of related tissues. However, these methods have some disadvantages, such as: (1) the biological properties of these processes and scaffolds are poor; (2) the cell seeding efficiency is low, and it is difficult to prepare anisotropic tissues in vitro.
[0003] Tubular tissue structures are very common in the human body, such as blood vessels, ureters, and urethra. Their diameters vary from large blood vessels of several millimeters to capillaries of several microns, with different diameters and different tissue structures. Therefore, it is very necessary to construct a method that can print hollow tubes of different diameters. Most of the traditional tubular structure printing technologies are based on sacrificial material methods, that is, after printing the complete structure, the sacrificial material is removed by adjusting the temperature, pH, etc. to obtain a hollow vascular structure to support the fusion of multicellular spheres or cylinders into vascular structures. Due to the complexity of the sacrificial bioprinting process, the size, morphology, and function of the obtained vascular-like structure may be limited. Although the recent development of multilayer coaxial extrusion systems has made technological progress, making it possible to directly manufacture hollow hydrogel tubes, it is still not easy to produce complex 3D cell-filled hollow structures, and it has not been proven. Therefore, one-step printing of hollow tubes with high precision, isotropic specificity, and excellent cell survival environment is urgently needed. Summary of the invention

[0007] Another advantage of the present invention is that it provides a 3D coaxially printed gelatin composite hydrogel ink and its preparation method and application. In order to improve the cell adhesion and growth performance of the ink, GelMA is added to the ink to form a physical network cross-linked by calcium ions for extrusion. After extrusion, chemical cross-linked hydrogel is formed by photocrosslinking to further stabilize the structure. In order to achieve a directional fiber structure, polyethylene oxide (PEO), a classic thickener and spinning agent, is introduced. After directional shearing, the hydrogel chains will be distributed along the axial direction.

[0009] Another advantage of the present invention is that it provides a 3D coaxially printed gelatin composite hydrogel ink and its preparation method and application, which are non-cytotoxic. The results show that the cells in the large-size vascular stent show a highly active and orderly growth morphology along the circumferential direction of the tube, and are therefore suitable for use as a stent in the human body.

[0038] The present invention focuses on the key issue of regulating the directional growth of smooth muscle cells. By introducing polyethylene oxide (PEO), based on the phase separation and shear orientation characteristics of the viscous polymer compound mixture, the pre-shearing in-situ coaxial bioprinting of highly oriented porous hydrogel microfibers is designed to print tubular units. Specifically, Figure 4 As shown in (ad), GELMA, sodium alginate, PEO, and cells are uniformly mixed together to form a two-phase viscous bio-ink, which is transported through a silicone tube. After the directional shearing action of the silicone tube, the hydrogel chains will be distributed along the axial direction, and then in situ cross-linked in the coaxial needle through the calcium chloride solution on the inner axis to form a temporarily stable hollow tube, and then further chemically cross-linked through UV light curing to form a stable hollow tubular unit.

[0053] In the step (S30), 0.8% CaCl 2 The aqueous solution was prepared as follows: 0.08 g CaCl 2 The monomer was dissolved in 10 mL dH 2 O, shake thoroughly to mix for subsequent use. Example

[0055] Then, 0.15 g of sodium alginate was added to the gelatin solution without adding polyethylene oxide, and the mixture was mixed again in a 50° C. water bath, and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 3.5 min to remove excess bubbles to obtain GA-1.5 for subsequent use.
[0056] In the step (S30), 0.8% CaCl 2 The aqueous solution was prepared as follows: 0.08 g CaCl 2 The monomer was dissolved in 10 mL dH 2 O, shake thoroughly to mix for subsequent use. Example

[0062] In the step (S30), 0.8% CaCl 2 The aqueous solution was prepared as follows: 0.08 g CaCl 2 The monomer was dissolved in 10 mL dH 2 O, shake thoroughly to mix for subsequent use.
[0063] The bio-ink manufactured by the above embodiment can be applied to coaxial printing combined with stress traction to manufacture tubular units of the order of 100 micrometers. The coaxial printing method of the application process includes the following steps: Place PGA bio-ink in the outer axis channel; Place CaCl2 aqueous solution in the inner shaft channel; Adjusting tensile stress, photo-crosslinking and gelation to form hollow tubular units; and After printing, it is cured with UV light.
[0064] Specifically, the outer axis of the printing device is 17G, the inner axis is 22G, the outer axis and the inner axis are coaxial needles, the outer axis is the bio-ink channel, and the inner axis is 0.8% CaCl 2 Solution, when sodium alginate and Ca 2+When combined, they can be quickly cross-linked to form a hollow tubular unit. The flow rates of the inner and outer channels are set to 0.4 mL / min and 0.5 mL / min respectively. The traction device is a self-designed and assembled three-dimensional tubular bracket 3D printing device. The coaxial printing synergistic stress traction device is as follows Fig.10 As shown in (a) in the figure. The tubular bracket printer has both horizontal linear movement and rotation axis. By changing the rotation axis speed and the rotation axis size, the pulling stress can be easily changed. The rotation axis speed selected in this study is 66 rpm and the rotation axis diameter is 5 mm. After printing, it is cured under 405nm ultraviolet light for 30s.
[0065] In the present invention, the 3D coaxially printed gelatin composite hydrogel ink comprises PGA bio-ink and CaCl 2 The aqueous solution, wherein the PGA bio-ink comprises methacrylated gelatin, sodium alginate and polyethylene oxide, and the sodium alginate and Ca 2+ Combined with photo-cross-linking gelation, it is used as 3D coaxially printed gelatin composite hydrogel ink to form hollow tubular units, which are suitable for printing bionic directional muscular tubular scaffolds.
[0066] The hydrogel ink components of the above embodiment were tested. Figure 3 As shown, the rheological characterization of sodium alginate at a concentration of 1%: (a) shear rate test; (b) temperature oscillation frequency test; (c) oscillation frequency test when not cross-linked; (d) Ca 2+ Oscillation frequency test after cross-linking; (e) Ca 2+ Photocuring process after cross-linking; (f) Oscillation frequency test after double cross-linking The results are as follows: (1) Shear rate scanning test: The injectability of hydrogel is a very important property, which determines whether it can be extruded smoothly during printing, otherwise it will clog the needle. The present invention uses the change of shear rate to observe the change of hydrogel viscosity, such as Figure 3 As shown in (a), it can be observed that the viscosity of both GA hydrogel and PGA hydrogel decreases with the increase of shear rate, which shows that it has the property of shear thinning, which is crucial for 3D printing platform used as ink. At the same time, the viscosity of PGA hydrogel is always greater than that of GA hydrogel, which is consistent with the phenomenon observed in the experiment.
[0067] (2) Temperature oscillation frequency test: Gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) is a temperature-sensitive hydrogel. The appropriate temperature is extremely critical for printing. If the temperature is too low, the composite hydrogel will be in a gel state and will not be easily squeezed out from the coaxial needle, resulting in rough and uneven printed lines. If the temperature is too high, the viscosity of the composite hydrogel will be too low and it will not be able to osmotic pressure with Ca. 2+The cross-linking is timely and sufficient, but it is in the form of droplets and cannot form a line. Figure 3 In (b), it can be found that at 5-27℃, the storage modulus (G') of GA and PGA hydrogels is greater than the loss modulus (G''), which means that at low temperatures, the composite hydrogel is solid and difficult to extrude through the coaxial needle; at 27-40℃, the storage modulus (G') of GA and PGA hydrogels is less than the loss modulus (G''), which means that after the temperature rises, the composite hydrogel changes from solid to liquid, and is suitable for extrusion from the needle. Therefore, we selected 37℃, the same as the human body temperature, as the printing temperature.
[0068] (3) Oscillation frequency test before cross-linking: Oscillation frequency test was performed on GA and PGA hydrogels at 37°C to observe the changes in their moduli. Figure 3 As shown in (c), it is observed that the loss modulus of both is greater than the storage modulus, indicating that at this temperature, both are liquid, and the storage modulus and loss modulus of PGA hydrogel are greater than those of GA hydrogel.
[0069] (4) Ca 2+ Oscillation frequency test after cross-linking: Figure 3 As shown in (d), in Ca 2+ After cross-linking, the storage modulus of GA hydrogel and PGA hydrogel was greater than the loss modulus, indicating that 2+ After cross-linking, the hydrogel has solid properties. At the same time, it can be seen that the modulus of PGA hydrogel is greater than that of GA hydrogel, indicating that the stability of PGA hydrogel blocks is greater than that of GA hydrogel. As the oscillation frequency increases, the moduli of both increase accordingly. The maximum modulus of PGA hydrogel is 2260 Pa, and the maximum modulus of GA hydrogel is 1329.65 Pa, indicating that Ca 2+ The cross-linked hydrogel blocks can temporarily maintain a stable structure.
[0070] (5) Photocuring process: In Ca 2+ After cross-linking, the cross-linked hydrogel was then subjected to in situ photocross-linking, and the modulus recording process was as follows: Figure 3 As shown in (e), the storage modulus of the photocrosslinked PGA hydrogel is 13239.8 Pa, and that of the GA hydrogel is 12496.3 Pa, which is comparable to that of the Ca-only hydrogel. 2+ Compared with the modulus after cross-linking, the modulus is significantly increased, which indicates that the stability of the chemical structure of the hydrogel after photo-cross-linking is significantly improved, which is the basis for us to continue 3D printing.
[0071] (6) Oscillation frequency test after double cross-linking: The oscillation frequency test of the hydrogel block after double cross-linking is performed, such as Figure 3As shown in (f), the storage modulus of PGA hydrogel is slightly larger than that of GA hydrogel, but both are above 10,000 Pa, which indicates that the double cross-linked structure is very stable.
[0072] The tubular units manufactured by the above-mentioned embodiments were subjected to biological tests.

Figure 5 (a) is the live-dead staining image of smooth muscle cells cultured in tubular sheets under different components on the 10th day; (b) is the cell spreading rate of smooth muscle cells in tubular sheets under different components on the 10th day. Figure 6 (a) is an electron micrograph of the pore sizes of hydrogels with different components; (b) is a statistical graph of the pore sizes of hydrogels with different components.
[0075] Cell live and dead staining: Use the live and dead staining kit according to the manufacturer's instructions. In short, use Calcein-AM and iodide (PI) for staining. Calcein-AM introduces the acetylmethoxymethyl (AM) group on the basis of traditional Calcein, which increases the hydrophobicity and enables it to easily penetrate the membrane of living cells. It can be reduced to Calcein inside the cell, which can make living cells emit green fluorescence; PI can only pass through the disordered area of the cell membrane of dead cells to reach the nucleus, and embed into the DNA double helix of the cell to produce red fluorescence, so PI can make dead cells show red fluorescence. Use confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM, STELLARIS 5, Leica, Germany) to observe fluorescence. Use Image J to analyze cell viability and roundness. The formula for calculating cell viability is as follows: Cell Viability (%) =number of green / (number of green + number of red)×100%.
[0076] Cell proliferation assessment: Immediately after printing, take a 5 mm long tube from the coaxial printing and place it in a 96-well plate. Add 100 μL complete medium and 10 μL CCK-8 solution to each well and incubate at 37°C and 5% CO. 2Incubate in an incubator for 2 hours. After the sample is taken out, place the 96-well plate in a microplate reader at 450 nm to measure the absorbance (OD), and record it as the number of cells on Day 0. Continue to culture in the incubator to measure the absorbance on the 1st, 3rd, and 10th days of culture, and calculate cell survival and proliferation (Cellproliferation) by the following formula.

[0077] Cell proliferation (%)=(ODt-ODblank) / (OD0-ODblank)×100% That is, in the present invention, by introducing polyethylene oxide (PEO), according to the phase separation and shear orientation characteristics of the viscous polymer compound mixture, the pre-shearing in situ coaxial bioprinting of highly oriented porous hydrogel microfibers was designed to print tubular units. Specifically, Figure 4 As shown in (ad), GELMA, sodium alginate, PEO, and cells are uniformly mixed to form a two-phase viscous bio-ink, which is transported through a silicone tube. After the directional shearing action of the silicone tube, the hydrogel chains will be distributed along the axial direction, and then in situ cross-linked in the coaxial needle through the calcium chloride solution on the inner axis to form a temporarily stable hollow tube, and then further chemically cross-linked by UV curing to form a stable hollow tubular unit. The connectivity of the tubular unit is proved by injecting red ink into it; Figure 4 Observations under high-power optical microscopes in (e) and (f) show that the structure without PEO has no obvious rules and the hydrogel chains are chaotically distributed, while the fiber filaments distributed along the axial direction can be observed after the introduction of PEO, which provides a structural basis for the directional growth of cells. Fluorescent gelatin was further used to observe the pores and fiber orientation under a confocal fluorescence microscope. The tubular unit without PEO has no directional fibers, but after the introduction of PEO, directional fibers with the same axial direction can be observed, and a larger pore structure can be seen, which provides space for cell proliferation and spreading.
[0078] Reference Figure 6 As shown in the figure, when the GELMA concentration is 10%, the concentration of sodium alginate is changed, the smooth muscle cells and the bio-ink are evenly mixed, the corresponding tubular units are printed by the above printing method, the cells are stained for live and dead, the survival and spreading of the smooth muscle cells are observed, and the roundness is counted. Figure 6It can be clearly observed that regardless of the sodium alginate concentration, the number of surviving cells is high, indicating that the material has good biocompatibility for cells; at the same time, as the sodium alginate concentration decreases, the number of smooth muscle spreads significantly increases on the 10th day, which is in line with theory and logic. When the sodium alginate concentration is high, the hydrogel structure is denser and the space for cell spread is smaller. As the sodium alginate concentration decreases, the hydrogel pores increase and the cells spread accordingly; and under the same sodium alginate concentration, the smooth muscle cells in the bio-ink introduced with PEO spread more than the smooth muscle without PEO, and grow along the axial direction. Therefore, this study will design the control group and experimental group with gelatin as 10%, sodium alginate as 1%, and PEO as variables.
[0079] Figure 6 (ce) shows the live-death staining and proliferation of smooth muscle cells in the tubular units on days 1, 3, and 10. (c) shows the live-death staining of smooth muscle cells on GA / PGA tubular units; (d) shows the proliferation rate of smooth muscle cells; and (e) shows the survival rate of smooth muscle cells.
[0080] On the first day, the survival rate of smooth muscle in the GA tubular unit was only 63.5%, while the survival rate in the PGA tubular unit could reach 85.85%. It has been shown in the previous article that the composite hydrogel has no obvious cytotoxicity to cells. The possible reason for this result is the cell damage caused during the actual printing process. The reason why the survival rate of smooth muscle cells in PGA is higher than that in GA tubular units is that the larger hydrogel pores can provide more sufficient material exchange space. By the 10th day of culture, the survival rate of smooth muscle cells in both tubular units reached more than 90%, which fully demonstrated the high biocompatibility of the tubular units printed by the composite hydrogel for cells. At the same time, we can observe that the expansion rate of smooth muscle cells in PGA tubular units is higher than that in GA tubular units, and in PGA tubular units, smooth muscle cells are expanded along the long longitudinal direction of the tubule.

Skeleton and antibody staining of smooth muscle in GA and PGA composite hydrogel In order to observe the changes in the morphology and function of smooth muscle cells in the printed tubular units over time, the F-actin, α-SMA, DES, OPN and nuclei of smooth muscle cells were fluorescently stained. In short, after fixation with 3mL 4% paraformaldehyde for 30min, 0.3% Triton X-100 3mL was used to permeabilize the cells for 30min. For the skeleton of smooth muscle cells, actin was then incubated in the dark for 60min with Phalloidin-labeled phalloidin; for α-SMA staining, 5% BSA was blocked for 6h, primary antibody was added and incubated overnight at room temperature, and then FITC-labeled fluorescent secondary antibody was added and incubated for 6h; for DES and OPN staining, 5% BSA was blocked for 6h. The primary antibody was prepared by diluting mouse smooth muscle Desmin antibody at 1:400 and rabbit smooth Osteopontin antibody at 1:150 in PBS, and incubated overnight at room temperature. The secondary antibody was incubated for 6 h with green fluorescent Desmin and red fluorescent Osteopontin fluorescent secondary antibodies diluted at 1:500; the nucleus was counterstained with ready-to-use DAPI solution for 30 min. Finally, the cell orientation angle and the length-to-length ratio of the nucleus were observed by fluorescence microscopy and analyzed using Image J.

Biocompatibility of PGA composite hydrogel: (a) Live / dead staining of smooth muscle cells on tubular units at corresponding concentrations; (b) Statistical analysis of smooth muscle cell proliferation rate; (c) Statistical analysis of smooth muscle cell survival rate; (d) Skeleton staining of smooth muscle cells on tubular units corresponding to the 10th day; (e) Orientation distribution of smooth muscle cells on tubular units corresponding to the 10th day; (f) Schematic diagram of orientation distribution of smooth muscle cells; (g) Schematic diagram of length-to-length ratio of cell nuclei; (h) Statistical diagram of length-to-length ratio of cell nuclei.
[0083] We further performed skeleton staining on the smooth muscle cells in the tubular unit and observed the cell angle distribution and the nucleus aspect ratio (NAR). Figure 8(d) in the figure shows the fluorescent image of the smooth muscle cell skeleton and cell nucleus after staining on the 10th day. GA is the control group, PGA-unstretched group is a group containing orientation factor PEO but not subjected to small stress traction, and PGA-stretched group is a group subjected to stress traction. It can be seen intuitively that the smooth muscle cells in the group without PEO and the group not subjected to traction have chaotic orientation, while the smooth muscle cells in the group containing PEO and subjected to stress traction have obvious cell orientation characteristics. Image.J was further used to quantify the orientation angles of the smooth muscle cells and the aspect ratios of the cell nuclei in the above three groups. Figure 8 As shown in (d), in the PGA tubular unit containing PEO and subjected to stress traction, the smooth muscle cells feel the effect of the PEO oriented fibers, and the cell orientation is concentrated at 0°. The smooth muscle cells in the other two groups are randomly distributed between -90° and 90°, with no orientation. Figure 8 (f) in the figure is a schematic diagram of cell orientation and the aspect ratio of the nucleus. Further, we counted the aspect ratios of the nucleus of smooth muscle cells in three different groups, such as Figure 8 As shown in (h), the average length-to-width ratio of the smooth muscle cell nuclei in the GA group was 1.480, the length-to-width ratio of the cell nuclei in the PGA group that was not subjected to traction was 1.900, and the length-to-width ratio of the cell nuclei in the PGA group that was subjected to traction was 2.707. After analysis, it was found that the P value between the GA group and the PGA-unstretched group was 0.0352, and the P value between the PGA-unstretched and PGA-stretched groups was <0.0001, which was statistically significant. It was confirmed that in order to induce the oriented growth of smooth muscle cells, it was necessary to combine the designed hydrogel structure with the corresponding process means, and to induce the oriented arrangement of smooth muscle cells on a microscopic scale by constructing a PEO oriented microstructure.

Printing of small diameter directional tubular stents Based on the tubular unit, we independently designed and assembled a device that can print small-diameter tubular brackets with rollers that can both roll and translate. Fig.10As shown in (a), the printing device includes a PGA composite hydrogel extrusion control device and a calcium chloride extrusion control device. The printed tubular unit is received by a roller. The roller diameter can be easily changed according to the printing requirements. The motor speed that controls the roller rotation speed can also be changed to obtain tubular units of different thicknesses. The roller motor is fixed to the translation base, and the translation speed and distance are adjusted to obtain tubular brackets of different lengths. The key point of printing the bracket is to match the extrusion rate, roller diameter, roller rotation speed and translation speed.

Millimeter-level directional tubular stent printing (a) Actual image of tubular stent printing; (b) Printing speed adjustment; (c) Printing of 3mm and 5mm tubular stents respectively; (d) Fluorescence image of directional tubular stent; (e) Stent elasticity demonstration; (f) Simulated vascular suture of tubular stent; (g) Schematic diagram of bursting pressure test; (h) Initial state of bursting pressure test; (i) Maximum pressure value Morphological characterization of PGA tubular scaffolds: PGA oriented tubular scaffolds with diameters of 3 mm and 5 mm were printed respectively. After curing with 405 nm UV light for 30 s, they were removed from the roller and the printed scaffolds were observed under macroscopic and fluorescence microscopes.
[0086] Burst pressure of PGA directional tubular stent: This study independently designed and assembled a burst pressure test device, such as Fig.10 As shown in (h) in the figure. The right side is a syringe connected to the syringe pump, the middle is an electronic pressure device, the left side is connected to the tubular bracket printed by this research institute, and the middle is connected to the rubber tube through a three-way pipe. The technical key and difficulty of this experiment lies in ensuring the airtightness of all connection points in the experiment, so the experiment was carried out after being tightly sealed with a sealing film.
[0087] like Fig.10 As shown in (a), a large-scale annular structure printing device is constructed based on a tubular unit. The tubular unit is printed out through a coaxial device, and the printed hollow tube is received by a roller. It includes a lateral translation structure and a rotating roller. By changing the diameter of the roller and the speed of the motor, annular structures of different sizes can be obtained simply and efficiently. Fig.10 In (c), we show two kinds of printed images with different diameters (3mm and 5mm). We further use fluorescent gelatin printing and 3D shaping under confocal microscope. The top view shows the annular fibers, which are the structural basis for the annular growth of smooth muscle cells. The printed lumen can still restore its original structure after being squeezed, indicating that our tubular structure has good elasticity. Fig.10In (f), the printed tubular unit was sutured end to end with 9-0 absorbable suture to simulate the vascular suture process in clinical practice. The results showed that the tubular structure was suitable for the suture process and had potential value for clinical application. We conducted a burst pressure test on the side wall pressure that the PGA tubular stent could withstand, as shown in Figure 2. Fig.10 The (gh) in it can withstand a maximum pressure of 32.7kPa, which is approximately equal to a pressure of 240mmHg, which is completely suitable for blood vessel replacement in the human body.
[0088] 4. Printing PGA directional tubular scaffolds with cells Digested smooth muscle cells were plated at 1×10 7 / mL was evenly mixed with sterilized bio-ink, and the ink extrusion speed and calcium chloride extrusion speed were set to 0.5mL / min. A 5mm diameter shaft was used, the shaft speed was 66rpm, the translation distance was set to 20,000 pulses, and the translation rate was set to 130 pulses per second. After printing, 405nm ultraviolet light was used for cross-linking for 30s, and then the scaffold was removed from the mold, rinsed twice with sterile PBS, and 20mL of complete culture medium was added and placed in a cell culture incubator for culture. Live and dead staining was performed on the first day after printing to observe the survival and compatibility of cells in the printed scaffold. On the 5th and 10th days, skeleton staining was performed in the same way as before. The spreading and orientation of smooth muscle cells in the corresponding tubular scaffolds were observed. The results showed that the cells showed a morphology of high activity and orderly growth along the circumference of the tube in large-size vascular scaffolds.

[0091] 3D printing of multi-branched tubular stents: Print several directional tubular structures of 3 mm and 5 mm respectively. After printing, use the same bio-ink to bond and solidify them to construct a vascular network branch structure.

[0093] Through the above biological detection, it is found that the present invention uses natural material gelatin as raw material to construct a double cross-linked network, and uses methacrylic anhydride and natural materials to prepare methacrylic gelatin (GelMA). The use of sodium alginate as biological ink is based on the rapid gelation of sodium alginate and calcium ions to achieve the construction of a hollow structure. The biological ink provided by the present invention has good biocompatibility, accurate printing, easy tensile yield, high mechanical tensile properties, and a double or multiple cross-linking mechanism. The printed tubular tissue has good isotropic specificity and no cytotoxicity. The cells in the large-size vascular stent show a highly active and orderly growth morphology along the circumferential direction of the tube, so it is suitable for use as a stent in the human body. In addition, the ink is injectable, can be extruded smoothly, will not clog the needle, and has the property of shear thinning, which is crucial for a 3D printing platform used as ink.
