PrinTimber Outreach Activity Teaches High School Students About Molecular Deformation and Additive Manufacturing
In May, Pullman High School AP Chemistry students learned about the molecular deformation of polymers through a hands-on class taught by Mechanical Engineering Assistant Professor and PrinTimber Principal Investigator Michael Maughan. The lesson taught the students what happens to polymers when they are stretched on a molecular level. This basic concept is a fundamental building block of science….
