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 ... -
Effect of mechanical recycling on the mechanical properties of PLA-based natural fiber-reinforced composites
(MDPI, 2023-04-06)The present study investigates the feasibility of utilizing polylactic acid (PLA) and PLAbased natural fiber-reinforced composites (NFRCs) in mechanical recycling. A conical twin screw extrusion (CTSE) process was utilized ... -
Mass customization of polylactic acid (PLA) parts via a hybrid manufacturing process
(MDPI, 2022-12-10)Mass customization is the development of items tailored to specific customers, but produced at low unit cost in high-volume. In this context, hybrid manufacturing (HM) combines fused deposition modeling (FDM) and injection ... -
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 ... -
On the possibility of replacement of calcium carbonate by a high-performance, economically viable filler in polyethylene composites
(Sage, 2021-07-14)Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is frequently added to polyethylene (PE) as a filler to reduce costs. An alternative to CaCO3, calcium fluoride (CaF2) was proposed in this research. PE/CaCO3 and PE/CaF2 composites in a wide ...
