Process optimization for the 3D printing of PLA and HNT composites with Arburg plastic freeforming
(MDPI, 2022-10-12)
The industrial use of additive manufacturing continues to rapidly increase as new technology
developments become available. The Arburg plastic freeforming (APF) process is designed to
utilize standard polymeric granules ...
Synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles for the preparation of Chitosan pellets and their application in industrial wastewater disinfection
(MDPI, 2023-01-02)
The use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has become popular in several applications due to
their bactericidal properties. In this sense, it is ideal that the AgNPs are incorporated into a matrix
in order to minimize their ...
Designing sustainable polymer blends: tailoring mechanical properties and degradation behaviour in PHB/PLA/PCL blends in a seawater environment
(MDPI, 2023-06-29)
Biodegradable polyesters are a popular choice for both packaging and medical device manufacture owing to their ability to break down into harmless components once they have completed their function. However, commonly used ...
Rheological behaviour of ABS/metal composites with improved thermal conductivity for additive manufacturing
(MDPI, 2023-11-17)
Metal-reinforced polymer composites are suitable materials for applications requiring special
thermal, electrical or magnetic properties. Three-dimensional printing technologies enable these
materials to be quickly shaped ...
