Net-like manufacturing of customizable objects through 3D printing offers great promise for personalized manufacturing, which can improve the adaptability, performance and comfort of the equipment and tools used in everyday life.
Robots that can build houses, runners for marathon runners, and NASA’s upcoming spacecraft all have one thing in common: That's the massive use of 3D printing parts. However, As the enthusiasm for 3D printing continues to grow and continues to expand in the market, the objects printed in this process will also have some defects A research group now publishes its latest research results in the journal ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces. The paper reports that A simple modification to the original material can increase the toughness of these printed plastics.
As the 3D printing market continues to expand and become more affordable, it is finding applications in many different areas. However, this versatility is often limited by the strength and durability of printed parts. Most print parts are divided into Layer printing, and this often leads to weak points between layers. Therefore, The strength of 3D printed parts is not as strong as that of existing methods for injecting plastics directly into molds. In order to obtain stronger 3D printed parts, Miko Cakmak, Bryan D. Vogt and colleagues studied whether it is possible to change the original material from my reinforcement print unit.
Researchers A structured core-shell polymer filament is made where the polycarbonate acts as a skeleton to support and strengthen the 3D printed part The olefin ionomer around the polycarbonate core improves and strengthens the connection between the shell print layers. During the test, Unlike without these parts, the printed part with the filaments can withstand the impact without cracking. The new filament makes the strength of the 3D printed part closer to that of the existing method..
