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 ...
Material considerations for fused-filament fabrication of solid dosage forms.
(MDPI, 2018-04)
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, ...
Preparation of biodegradable poltyethylene glycol dimethacrylate hydrogels via thiol-ene chemistry.
(MDPI, 2019-08-13)
Through the control of the molecular weight, water content and monomer concentration, polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) based hydrogels have been adapted for numerous applications, including as structural scaffolds, ...
Influence of extrusion screw speed on the properties of halloysite nanotube impregnated polylactic acid nanocomposites
(De Gruyter, 2021)
Poly (lactic acid)/halloysite nanotube (PLA/HNT)
nanocomposites have been studiedextensively over the past
fewyears owing to the interesting properties of the polymer,
PLA, and the nanoclay, HNT, individually and as ...

Characteristics of the treated calcium carbonate particles with stearic acid using different treating methods.
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is often treated with stearic acid (SA) to decrease its polarity. However, the method of application of the SA treatments has a strong influence on their interface structure and distribution. ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
