The role of crystallization and annealing on the thermal conductivity of material extrusion additively manufactured parts

“Despite the significant research being conducted on the mechanical reliability of additively manufactured parts, comparatively little focus has been paid to the property of thermal conductivity. Additively manufactured thermally conductive parts have the potential to benefit thermal management technologies that are currently a bottleneck of many classes of advanced electronic devices. Creating parts with high thermal conductivities remains

Optimization of extrusion-based additive manufacturing of bronze metal parts using a CuSn10/Polylactic acid composite

“As additive manufacturing gains widespread adoption across various industries, its application to traditional materials such as bronze remains relatively underexplored. Through a comprehensive assessment, this research investigates the extrusion-based additive manufacturing of bronze, utilizing a CuSn10/Polylactic Acid (PLA) composite filament for printing bronze green parts, followed by thermal debinding and sintering processes to produce metal parts. By systematically varying 3D printing, debinding,

Characterization of Radiation Shielding Capabilities of High Concentration PLA-W Composite for 3D Printing of Radiation Therapy Collimators

“This work evaluates the radiation shielding capabilities of the PLA-W composite for MV energy photons emitted by a linear accelerator and the feasibility of manufacturing a clinically-used collimator grid in spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) using the material extrusion (MEX) 3D printing technique. The PLA-W filament used has a W concentration of 93% w/w and a green density

A Design Strategy for Removing the Debinding and Sintering Gas in Additive Manufactured Samples of a Bronze/Polylactic Acid Filament

“To lower the cost of additive manufacturing of metallic components, the goal of this work is to investigate and optimize a multi-step process by material extrusion (MEX) of a polylactide filament loaded with bronze to remove the gas produced during the debinding and sintering steps. First, by adjusting the infill (10%, 50%, and 100%), and

Multifunctional HKUST-1-3D-printed device for the simultaneous extraction of hydrocarbons and dyes from water

“Herein, we report a MOF polymer coating and in-situ growth mixed strategy to fabricate a multifunctional floating 3D printed device for simultaneous hydrocarbon and dye removal. Due to the superhydrophobic properties (water contact angle = 151o) of the upper part of the device, it was applied for the removal of oil from water, obtaining excellent separation efficiency (from 90 to 98.6 %) for
