Highlights • 3D printing of supercooled liquid deposition based on the salt hydrate. • Developed theory is verified experimentally with sodium acetate trihydrate. • Main advantage of 3D printing of supercooled liquids is the higher process speed. 3D printing is nowadays an integral part of modern production. New materials for 3D printing therefore play a crucial role in further establishing this technology. Hence, this paper investigates the printability of salt hydrates. To print these type of materials, a novel deposition method based on supercooled liquids is first developed mathematically in theory and verified experimentally in practice. It is shown that this new deposition method has significant advantages compared to the state of the art 3D printing, especially with regard to the printing speed.
