The production of solid dosage forms from non-degradable polymers.
(Bentham Science, 2015)
Non-degradable polymers have an important function in medicine. Solid dosage forms for longer term implantation require to be constructed from materials that will not degrade or erode over time and also offer the utmost ...
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 ...
Influence of annealing and biaxial expansion on the properties of Poly-l-lactic) medical tubing.
(MDPI, 2019-07-11)
Poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) is one of the most common bioabsorbable materials in the medical
device field. However, its use in load-bearing applications is limited due to its inferior mechanical
properties when compared ...
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, ...

Additive manufacturing of PLA/HNT nanocomposites for biomedical applications
(Elsevier, 2019)
Additive manufacturing has been of great interest of research in various applications due to their ease in processability, cost effectiveness and adaptability. In this study Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) was used as the base ...
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 ...
The influence of low shear microbore extrusion on the properties of high molecular weight poly(l-lactic acid) for medical tubing applications.
(MDPI, 2019-04)
Biodegradable polymers play a crucial role in the medical device field, with a broad range
of applications such as suturing, drug delivery, tissue engineering, sca olding, orthopaedics, and
fixation devices. Poly-l-lactic ...
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 ...
Tailoring drug release in bilayer tablets through droplet deposition modeling and injection molding
(Elsevier, 2024-02-01)
This study explores the innovative production of personalized bilayer tablets, integrating two advanced
manufacturing techniques: Droplet Deposition Modeling (DDM) and Injection Molding (IM). Unlike traditional
methods ...
