On page 6076, D. Therriault and co‐workers demonstrate a 3D printing method used to make a liquid sensor with a potential application in oil industry. The cover image shows a 3D printing machine printing a scaffold structure around a pipeline joint with an electronic device as a leak detector on top of the joint. The background is a SEM image of a 3D printed scaffold, used as a liquid sensor.
