Its story began a decade earlier, in 1997, at the MIT Media Lab , when it was created by two students, J.D. Black-and-white electronic ink is a straightforward fusion of chemistry, physics, and electronics, and it does pretty much what traditional ink and paper does. From the very beginning, e-paper seemed magical.

Missouri S&T will combine a novel additive manufacturing technique, called ceramic on-demand extrusion, and ceramic fusion welding techniques to manufacture very high temperature heat exchangers for power cycles with intense heat sources. MIT will develop a high performance, compact, and durable ceramic heat exchanger.
