"compatible performance to metal, but 10 - 20X lighter, less expensive and easy to build... titanium carbide MXene integration onto 3D-printed nylon-based parts can make polymer surfaces conductive, allows efficient channel-like structure guiding of microwaves to frequency bands.... additively 3D printed: communication (antennas, waveguides, filters), medical imaging (MRI), aerospace (satellites), reduced space transport payloads"
