Abstract

A method for 3D printing includes printing a first metallic material on a substrate as a support structure (). A second metallic material, which is less anodic than the first metallic material, is printed on the substrate as a target structure (), in contact with the support structure. The support structure is chemically removed from the target structure by applying a galvanic effect to selectively corrode the first metallic material.
