dc.description.abstractSelf-healing technorganic materials are critical for organ printing/repair operations. This study characterized one such technorganic material by measuring its density. By ascertaining the density of the material, we hope to later derive other important properties including: the speed of sound within the material, its stiffness, its conductivity, and its natural frequency. The material in question was printed on a gold substrate by depositing hexane within a silver nitrate solution. The density was obtained by observing the volume change of the solution in which it was printed and by measuring the sample’s mass. A final density of 0.622±pm 0.227 g/cm³ was measured, and we hope to continue characterizing the material’s mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties with future studies.
