Embodiments are directed to nozzles for three-dimensional printing and related nozzle assemblies and methods. An example nozzle includes at least one top surface, at least one bottom surface, and at least one nozzle lateral surface extending from or near the top surface to or near the bottom surface. The nozzle also includes at least one conduit surface defining a conduit. At least a portion of the conduit surface comprise at least one of polycrystalline diamond (“PCD”), polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (“PcBN”), or another suitable superhard material. The nozzle may be attached to a base to form a nozzle assembly. The nozzle may be attached to the base by at least one of deforming the base relative to the nozzle, threadedly attaching (either directly or indirectly) the nozzle to the base, or press-fitting a hollow hollowed-sleeve into a passageway defined by the base.

Solution casting a nanostructure. Preparing a template by ablating nanoholes in a substrate using single-femtosecond laser machining. Replicating the nanoholes by applying a solution of a polymer and a solvent into the template. After the solvent has substantially dissipated, removing the replica from the substrate.

The present invention relates to an induction sealing device for heat sealing packaging material for producing sealed packages of pourable food products. The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such an induction sealing device. The device comprises at least one inductor coil provided with at least one elongated sealing surface for cooperation with the packaging material during sealing. The sealing surface comprises a protruding ridge extending along a longitudinal extension of the sealing surface for cooperation with the packaging material and for increasing the sealing pressure on the packaging material during sealing.
