Mass-customization of oral tablets via the combination of 3D printing and injection molding.
(Elsevier, 2019-10-05)
The new frontier of medicine is the personalization of treatment to match a patient’s individual needs. Fused-filament fabrication (FFF) offers a platform for the personalization of drug dosage forms, but one of its chief ...
Modification of hyaluronic acid for stereolithography 3D printing of hydrogel nerve conduits
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
The peripheral nervous system transmits signals from the brain to the limbs and organs of the
body. Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) resulting from trauma, illness or cancer affect
approximately 1 million people in Europe ...
Hybrid manufacturing 3D printing and injection moulding in the pursuit of mass customization
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Project Overview:
Mass customization is a marketing and manufacturing technique which combines the flexibility and personalization of custom-made products with the low unit costs associated with mass production. The ...
Effect of stereolithography 3D printing on the properties of PEGDMA hydrogels.
(MDPI, 2020-09-03)
Stereolithography (SLA)-based 3D printing has proven to have several advantages over
traditional fabrication techniques as it allows for the control of hydrogel synthesis at a very high
resolution, making possible the ...
Material considerations for fused-filament fabrication of solid dosage forms.
(MDPI, 2018-04-02)
Material choice is a fundamental consideration when it comes to designing a solid dosage form. The matrix material will ultimately determine the rate of drug release since the physical properties (solubility, viscosity, ...
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 ...
Polymer based additive manufacturing historical developments, process types and material considerations.
(Springer Nature, 2019)
3D printing is a manufacturing technique where parts are built in a layer-by-layer fashion. The earliest embodiments were based on generating successive layers of solidified materials at the air liquid interface through ...
Production and testing of the flat faced tablets via overprinting of injection moulded tablet bases
(Technological University of the Shannon Midlands Midwest, 2022)
Conventional drug production assures the merits of maintaining unit
dosage form accuracy, stable dose and invariability among the batches. It
also has a shortcoming that cannot make personalised medicine that could
target ...
Fused-filament fabrication of PEEK: a review of process-structure-property relationships.
(MDPI, 2020-07-27)
Poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic polymer
with potential for use in a variety of metal replacement applications due to its high strength to weight
ratio. This combination ...
Comparison of fused-filament fabrication to direct compression and injection molding in the manufacture of oral tablets.
(Elsevier, 2019-03-10)
Oral tablets are a convenient form to deliver active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and have a high level of acceptance from clinicians and patients. There is a wide range of excipients available for the fabrication of ...
