a Photograph of printing a cylinder tube. b Optical and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of a printed cylinder tube with a height of 120 mm and thickness of 1.5 mm. (Left scale bar = 12 mm, right scale bar = 0.8 mm). c Optical image of a printed wrinkled ring with a diameter of 90 mm using a nozzle with 1-mm diameter (scale bar = 2 mm). d Serpentine network printed with a 25 μm nozzle (scale bar = 100 μm). e–g Comparison of the e tensile test; f elastic modulus and ultimate strength; g infrared and h Raman spectroscopy between ISDH-printed and molded samples.
